Non-owner auto insurance in Alaska costs $233 a year, which is $120 lower than the rest of the nation on average, according to Insure.com’s 2023 rate analysis.
In Alaska, non-owner policies are available from companies such as Western National Mutual, State Farm and Progressive.
Non-owner car insurance is a policy for people who don’t own a car but often borrow or rent a vehicle. It provides liability coverage for bodily injury and property damage in case you get in an accident while driving a car owned by someone else.
“Non-owner policies provide the minimum coverage required by the state, as well as some optional add-ons, but there are specific requirements by the insurance carriers to provide this coverage in lieu of a traditional auto insurance policy,” says Patti Clement, senior vice president of private client services at HUB International, a leading personal insurance brokerage.

How much does non-owner car insurance cost in Alaska?
Insurance companies view non-owner policyholders as less of a risk due to their limited access to a vehicle, and therefore, it’s usually cheaper to buy a non-owner insurance policy than full coverage auto insurance.
On average in the United States, it costs a driver with a clean driving record and good credit score $1,682 per year for a 100/300/100 full coverage insurance policy—$100,000 for injuries you cause in an accident, up to $300,000 per accident, and $100,000 for property damage. In Alaska, full coverage car insurance costs $1,359.
On the other hand, non-owner car insurance is $353 a year on average in the U.S. and $233 in Alaska.
But various factors affect individual rates, such as where in Alaska you live, your age and driving history and other factors.
