Newcomer Auto Insurance in Ontario

Yes. We arrange coverage using your Ontario or interim driver's licence and, where available, a letter of experience from your previous insurer so you receive rating credit for the years you've driven. We place you across 17+ insurers that credit foreign and out-of-province history so you're not priced as a brand-new driver.

It's a document from your previous insurer confirming how long you were insured and your claims history. Ontario insurers use it to grant experience and claims-free credit. We tell you exactly what the letter needs to include and which insurers credit it most generously.

Many do, to varying degrees. Some credit years of experience and claims-free history from other countries; others credit only certain regions. We route you to the carriers that credit your specific history so you're rated fairly rather than as a first-time driver.

Your Canadian driving record and claims history can be requested and transferred, and most Ontario insurers credit inter-provincial experience fully. We handle the records request and place you with a carrier that recognizes your claims-free years so your premium reflects your real record.

You need at least an interim Ontario licence or, for new residents, a valid exchange to bind a policy. We walk you through the licence step and time the policy so cover starts the day your vehicle is plated and insured in Ontario.

You can still be insured, but you may be rated with less experience credit until the letter arrives. We bind cover immediately and then re-rate you once the letter is in, so you're not overpaying a day longer than necessary.

Not if your history is credited. The overpricing comes from being rated as a new driver when you're not. We obtain the documentation that converts your real experience into Ontario rating credit and shop it across 17+ insurers so you pay for who you are.

Yes. If you're buying or renting a home in Ontario, bundling auto with home or tenant insurance unlocks a multi-line discount and one renewal date. We'll quote both together so the newcomer discount is real and documented.
