7 x( m( S" F; z5 qAutomobile insurance
# w9 _. \' c( v$ _! PICBC (Insurance Corporation of British Columbia) provides universal auto insurance to all BC motorists and is also responsible for driver licensing, vehicle enrollment and licensing. All BC motorists must have “Basic Autoplan” coverage. It provides the minimum insurance coverage required by law.
If you are bringing your car into BC from another province or country and are a full-time student from outside of BC who is attending school here, you may need a permit to operate your vehicle here. You must get the permit within 30 days of your arrival. It will be good for up to six months, or until your existing insurance expires, whichever happens first. If you don’t have any insurance, you’ll have to buy some as part of the operating permit. Contact ICBC Interjurisdictional Licensing at 604.443.4624 for more information.
If you have questions, call ICBC at 1.800.950.1498 between 8am and 7pm Monday through Friday, and from 9am to 5pm on Saturdays, or visit www.icbc.com.
