If you are trying to find out which insurance company wrote a car insurance policy, there are a few ways to do so:

  • Check the insurance ID card: If the person has a physical copy of their insurance ID card, the name of the insurance company should be listed on it.
  • Check with the DMV: If you are trying to find out about a car insurance policy for a specific vehicle, you can contact your state's Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and provide them with the license plate number or vehicle identification number (VIN). They should be able to provide you with the name of the insurance company associated with that vehicle.
  • Check with the driver: If you are trying to find out about a car insurance policy for a specific person, you can ask them directly which insurance company they use.
  • Check with the insurance regulator: You can contact your state's insurance regulator and provide them with the policyholder's name and any other relevant information you have. They may be able to provide you with the name of the insurance company that wrote the policy.
  • Check with the insurance agent: If you have been dealing with an insurance agent, you can contact them and ask which insurance company wrote the policy.
