## Document requirements and use  

Depending on your location, Turo may require you to keep certain documents in your vehicle as proof of legal compliance and insurance coverage. Failure to comply with these requirements is a violation of Turo’s [vehicle misrepresentation policy](https://help.turo.com/vehicle-misrepresentation-SkLQ84eNc) and will result in a $100 violation fee.  

Keep in mind that you can’t use an incident information card or insurance certificate to register your vehicle, and neither of these documents satisfies state or provincial "Financial Responsibility" requirements; only your personal insurance card does that. 

## Documents required for US hosts

Turo requires hosts in the US to keep the following documents or copies of these documents in their vehicle for all Turo trips. All documents must be valid from the start date through the end date of any current trip.

## Documents required for Australia hosts

In accordance with legal requirements in Australia, Turo doesn’t require hosts to keep any documentation in their vehicles. As a courtesy to guests, we ask hosts to keep a copy of the Turo Incident information card in their vehicle so guests have easy access to proof of coverage and the phone number for roadside assistance in case of an accident or vehicle issue.
