QuestionInsurance Question  I am moving my car to Florida from Massachusetts. How quickly do I have to register my car in Florida and change the plates? Do I have to insure my car in Florida or can I maintain my Massachusetts insurance?

AnswerAuto Insurance Answer

In the state of Florida, a motor vehicle is required by law to be registered within ten days of the owner either becoming employed, placing children in public school or establishing residency. If you are registering your former Massachusetts car in Florida you will not be able to maintain your MA insurance but instead will have to acquire Florida insurance.

Florida requires that any vehicle holding a valid FL license tag and registration must be covered by a Florida insurance policy throughout the entire registration period. If you do not register your car in Florida but only have your vehicle in FL for more than 90 days, during a 365 day period, you must purchase personal injury protection and property damage liability insurance coverage.
