Florida Car Insurance Minimum Requirements

What Florida law requires you to carry, and what your insurer must offer you on top of it.

Shorthand
PIP $10,000 / PDL $10,000

Florida has no 25/50/25-style bodily injury requirement. A policy carrying at least $30,000 for combined property damage and bodily injury liability also satisfies the property damage rule.

Bodily injury — per person
Not required

Ordinary Florida drivers are not required to carry bodily injury liability coverage. It becomes mandatory only after a DUI conviction (§ 324.023) or as future proof of financial responsibility after a crash or an unsatisfied judgment under chapter 324.

Bodily injury — per accident
Not required
Property damage
$10,000

§ 324.022(1) requires the ability to respond in damages for $10,000 of property damage in any one crash.

Uninsured / underinsured motorist
Included unless rejected in writing

A policy that provides bodily injury liability coverage must include uninsured motorist coverage unless the named insured rejects it in writing on a form approved by the Office of Insurance Regulation (§ 627.727(1)).

Personal injury protection (PIP)
Mandatory

Florida is a no-fault state. Every owner or registrant of a vehicle registered here must keep personal injury protection security in force continuously throughout the registration period (§ 627.733(1)).

PIP minimum limit
$10,000

$10,000 in medical and disability benefits plus $5,000 in death benefits. Medical benefits are limited to $2,500 if a qualified provider determines there was no emergency medical condition (§ 627.736(1)).
