Car Insurance in PR

Don't know exactly what kind of insurance you might need but I'll give you my limited experience so far. I bought a used car here. You can get your liability insurance and your registration done at the same time it's called marbete. You pay $174 for the year and that covers your registration and liability ins. When yo buy a used vehicle from somebody, their marbete passes on to you. If they have 5 months left on their ins. it automatically transfers to you when you register the car. Any other kind of ins. I have no experience with yet.

If you want full-coverage car insurance, I'd go with Seguros Multiples. For a vehicle worth approximately $8k, expect to pay around $750 for the year. They provide 24 hour roadside assistance throughout the island (not sure about Culebra and Vieques).

One caveat: you have to pay it up-front or enter into a debtor-creditor relationship with a third-party company used by SM for monthly payments (I think a 3 or 6 month payment plan is standard - I do not think you can stretch it over the course of the entire year. Besides, the longer the payment plan, the higher the interest.)

Good luck witht the move!
