North Carolina Minimum Insurance Requirements (Intrastate)
North Carolina intrastate CMVs must meet the state’s minimum Commercial Auto Liability rules. The NCDMV indicates a $750,000 minimum for CMVs (interstate or intrastate, private or for-hire) meeting federal financial responsibility thresholds. Certain categories (e.g., household goods, smaller GVW) have specific schedules and filings
GVW ≤ 26,000 lbs
Minimum: $100/$300/$50
GVWR ≥ 26,001 lbs
Minimum: $750,000 CSL
Note: Federal filings still apply to interstate carriers and certain hazmat classes. We’ll help you determine what applies to your operation.
