Can You Tax Your Car Without Insurance Documents? 
Most states require documentation showing active insurance coverage before they will renew a registration . If you do not have your information , you can contact your insurance company to receive duplicates . Some companies even allow you to print insurance cards through your online account . Insurance companies are required to report insured individuals to the states , but the local DMV may not have access to that information . If you do not have car insurance , you can normally pay the taxes due , but you can not register the car for the next year . A minimum amount of car insurance is a requirement . Most insurance companies can provide new insurance cards on the day you get a new insurance policy .
