How to Restore Your Mississippi License After a No-Insurance Suspension

Last checked · Sources listed below

The short answer

These are the steps the Mississippi agency lists to restore a license after a suspension for no insurance. The state's reinstatement fees are $100 to $175, depending on the suspension. Mississippi asks for proof of insurance after a no-insurance suspension; an SR-22 for at least 3 years applies to DUI and implied-consent reinstatements.

The steps below are the ones the state lists for a suspension after a crash without insurance.

Steps listed by the Mississippi agency

  1. Handle the citation for failing to provide proof of insurance with the appropriate court.
  2. Provide proof of insurance to the Driver Service Bureau Records Division (within 60 days of the accident to avoid suspension).
  3. Pay the $100.00 Accident Suspension Reinstatement fee (online via Pay your Reinstatement Fee, or by mail).
  4. Mail payment as a certified cashier's check or money order (no personal checks) to Driver Records Division/Reinstatement, P.O. Box 1459, Canton, MS 39046.
  5. Questions: 601-487-7028.

Need to drive to work while suspended? The state offers a Ignition interlock restricted license (DUI). Many states limit these licenses to certain suspensions, such as DUI cases, so check that it covers yours.
