Alaska
Required Minimum Liability Coverage
Alaska requires minimum liability of 50/100/25 — $50,000 bodily injury per person, $100,000 bodily injury per accident, and $25,000 property damage. These are state minimums; consumer advocates typically recommend higher limits (100/300/100) to cover serious injuries.
Bodily Injury Coverage Requirements
Bodily injury liability in Alaska pays for medical bills, lost wages, and pain-and-suffering damages owed to people YOU injure in an at-fault crash. The minimum is $50,000 per injured person and $100,000 total per accident. These are caps on what your insurer will pay; you are personally liable for damages above the policy limit.
Property Damage Coverage
Property damage liability in Alaska pays for damage YOU cause to other people's vehicles, fences, buildings, and other property. The minimum is $25,000 per accident. Given the rising cost of vehicles and repairs, this minimum often falls short of a single luxury vehicle's repair bill.
Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage
Alaska REQUIRES uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage on every auto policy. UM/UIM coverage at minimum liability limits is required unless rejected in writing. UM/UIM coverage protects YOU and your passengers when an at-fault driver has no insurance or insufficient limits to cover your injuries.
Self-Insurance & Bond Alternatives
Self-insurance is permitted for fleets of 26+ vehicles or by posting a $75,000 bond. SR-22 may be required after DUI, uninsured accidents, or license suspension.
