California Requires SR22
for 3 Years

California Route 66 sign, SR22 insurance filing in California

The California DMV requires SR22 certification as proof of minimum liability insurance before reinstating a suspended license.

Certificate type: SR22 and SR1P (for motorcycles)

Filing fee: California does not charge a state SR22 filing fee, your carrier files electronically at no additional state cost.

Common triggers in California: DUI/DWI conviction, driving without insurance, license suspension, or excessive points on your DMV record.

California-specific: California uses the SR1P certificate for motorcycle-specific filings. The state also requires an IID (Ignition Interlock Device) in some DUI cases alongside SR22.
