A No Insurance (NI) Flag is placed on your license when the State of Louisiana is notified that your vehicle insurance has lapsed or been canceled. Insurance providers send these notifications electronically to the state. This happens often in error if you’ve recently switched insurance companies. We’ll research the cause, explain the issue, and guide you in collecting any required documents to help clear the flag and avoid unnecessary penalties.

 

We are here to help! Give us a call or stop by at one of our locations. We will research the issue to determine why the flag was placed on your record. If it's an error, we’ll guide you through the steps to remove it without paying unnecessary fines to the Office of Motor Vehicles. We’ll also help you gather any required documents to resolve it.
