Understanding Florida’s FR44 vs SR22 Requirements
Florida law distinguishes between FR44 and SR22 certificates based on the type of violation.
FR44 Certificate
Required specifically for DUI or DWI convictions in Florida. This certificate proves you carry liability coverage at higher limits than the standard Florida minimums.
SR22 Certificate
Required for serious violations that do not involve DUI, including driving without insurance, multiple traffic violations, or at-fault accidents while uninsured.

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the cost difference between FR44 and SR22 in Fort Lauderdale?
FR44 policies typically cost more because Florida requires higher liability limits for DUI convictions. Your rate depends on your driving history, vehicle, age, and insurance carrier.
Can I get non-owner FR44 insurance if I don’t have a car?
Yes. Many Fort Lauderdale residents don’t own vehicles but still need an FR44 filing for license reinstatement. Non-owner policies provide the required liability coverage without insuring a specific vehicle.
How quickly can I get my FR44 filed?
Most Fort Lauderdale drivers receive same-day electronic filing once the policy is purchased.
What happens if my FR44 policy lapses?
Your insurance company must notify Florida DHSMV if your policy cancels. The state will suspend your license again and the FR44 requirement period may restart.
