What Is Non-Owner SR-22 Insurance?

Non-owner SR-22 combines two separate obligations: the SR-22 certificate itself, which is a state filing proving you carry liability insurance, and a non-owner liability policy, which provides bodily injury and property damage coverage when you drive a car you don't own. Wisconsin requires the SR-22 filing after certain license suspensions — most commonly DUI, reckless driving convictions, or driving uninsured. The non-owner policy attached to it covers you while driving borrowed or rental vehicles, but it never covers a vehicle registered in your name or in your household.

Who Needs Non-Owner SR-22 Insurance?

Non-owner SR-22 is required for Wisconsin drivers whose license was suspended for DUI, reckless driving, or driving uninsured, who do not currently own a vehicle, and who need to satisfy reinstatement requirements before the DMV will restore their license. It is also the correct choice for drivers who have reinstated but still need to maintain the SR-22 filing for the required 3-year period and do not own a car during that time.

Check your reinstatement letter from the Wisconsin DMV. If it lists SR-22 filing as a requirement and you do not own a car, non-owner SR-22 is the correct and typically cheapest option. If you own or lease a vehicle, or if you live with someone whose car you drive more than once a week, you need a standard policy with SR-22 attached instead.
