Non-owner car insurance in Missouri is $315 annually, according to Insure.com’s 2023 rate analysis, which is $65 lower than the rest of the country on average.

In Missouri, these policies are available from companies such as State Farm, Geico and Travelers, in addition to many others.

Non-owner car insurance is a policy for people who don’t own a car but often borrow or rent a vehicle. It provides liability coverage for bodily injury and property damage in case you get in an accident while driving a car owned by someone else.

“Non-owner policies provide the minimum coverage required by the state, as well as some optional add-ons, but there are specific requirements by the insurance carriers to provide this coverage in lieu of a traditional auto insurance policy,” says Patti Clement, senior vice president of private client services at HUB International, a leading personal insurance brokerage.

In addition to understanding the various requirements, it’s important to learn what non-owner insurance is, which companies offer it and how much it costs in Missouri.

How much does non-owner auto insurance cost in Missouri?

Insurance companies regard non-owner policyholders as less of a risk due to their limited access to a car; therefore, it’s usually less expensive to buy non-owner insurance than regular car insurance.

On average, in the U.S., it costs $1,682 a year for a 100/300/100 full coverage insurance policy. This includes $100,000 for injuries you might cause in an accident, up to $300,000 per accident, and an additional $100,000 for property damage. This applies to those drivers with a good credit score and a clean driving record. In Missouri, it’s $1,984.

On the other hand, non-owner auto insurance is $315 a year in Missouri and $380 on average in the U.S. by comparison.

Various criteria affect rates, such as how old you are, your driving history, and your chosen insurance company.
