SR22 vs Non Owner SR22

Which Type of SR22 Do You Need?

If you’ve been required to file an SR22, you may hear about two different types: standard SR22 insurance and Non-Owner SR22 insurance. Understanding the difference can help you choose the right policy based on whether you own a vehicle.


What Is a Standard SR22 Policy?

A standard SR22 policy is attached to a vehicle you own. It provides the required liability coverage while also filing the SR22 certificate with the state.

This type of policy is usually required for drivers who:

  • Own a car
  • Drive their vehicle regularly
  • Need insurance to reinstate their license

What Is Non Owner SR22 Insurance?

A Non-Owner SR22 policy is designed for drivers who do not own a vehicle but still need to file an SR22 with the state.

These policies allow drivers to meet state insurance requirements while driving vehicles they do not own.

Non-Owner SR22 policies are commonly used by drivers who:

  • Sold their vehicle after a suspension
  • Occasionally drive borrowed vehicles
  • Need to maintain SR22 coverage but do not own a car
