How long is my car insurance quote valid for?

I got a quote last week, but I'm not sure it will still be the same if I want to purchase the policy today. How long does a car insurance quote remain accurate?

“Getting a
car insurance
quote is an important step of the buying process, but one that’s often confusing!
The length of time that car insurance quotes are valid depends on the company. Most quotes are good for 30 days, but it doesn’t always mean your price will remain the same.
Some insurance companies offer early shopping discounts, meaning you save money when purchasing an insurance policy in advance. If you
request a quote
for a future date, you’ll likely save a percentage off your policy. Should you not purchase the policy then, your ratemay change at a later date.
That said, in most cases, your quote should still be accurate from last week. Most rates won’t change in that short period.
