Assess the past driving record of your relative. If you think their driving record is safe in their country of origin, you may want to add their name to your existing policy. This is often one of the cheapest ways to insure foreign visitors.
Call up your insurance agent and inform the insurance company that you would like to add a visitor's name to your existing policy for a few weeks .
Obtain a copy of your relative's international permit or driver's license of the state or city in the country of origin. Ensure that you complete all necessary paperwork.
Receive an updated policy quote. Your premium is likely to increase for the duration that your relative's name is on the policy, as he or she has no established driving record in the U.S.
Shop for quotes if your driving record is too bad and you cannot add another name to your existing policy. Shop for part-time or short-term insurance policies with local agents. You can also go online to get quotes.
Get a rental car and a temporary insurance if you cannot let your relative borrow your car. The rental company will arrange for a temporary insurance.
