Federal employees are often eligible for car insurance discounts based on their government employment. Insurance companies recognize government workers as lower-risk customers due to job stability, consistent income, and other factors.

Occupation-based savings can help reduce your insurance costs, but discount amounts vary by insurance company and your specific risk profile.

Here’s what you need to know about the best car insurance for federal employees and how to earn the best rates.

Quick Facts
  • GEICO, Liberty Mutual, USAA, Farmers, and Travelers offer some of the best savings for federal employees and military members.

  • Your eligibility for discounts will depend on which agency you work for and the insurer you choose.

  • Beyond savings opportunities, auto insurance for federal employees is the same as traditional car insurance.

I went through the proper paperwork to have him removed and was always told it wouldn’t happen again. It happened five times. The last time, I was told that to remove him, they would need to rewrite my policy, which would raise my rates as I had been grandfathered into my existing rate. This is why I canceled.

Why we picked this company

Liberty Mutual doesn’t offer a federal employee discount directly, but the insurer partners with more than 15,000 organizations to provide affiliation discounts. Federal workers with coverage from Liberty Mutual may qualify for discounts through membership in credit unions, professional associations, and alumni groups.[3]

The insurance company also offers a vanishing deductible perk for loyal customers. Each year, you contribute $30, and Liberty Mutual provides $70, with the full $100 available to you if you file a claim.

Pros
  • Has affinity partnership discounts

  • Several optional add-ons available

  • High claims satisfaction score from J.D. Power

Cons
  • No publicly available list of eligible organizations and associations

  • Above-average amount of complaints filed with the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC)

  • Relatively high average premiums

USAA primarily serves military members, veterans, and their families, but you can also join if you work for an eligible federal agency, such as the Defense Criminal Investigation Services (DCIS), the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), or the Department of State (DOS).[4]

The insurer doesn’t offer specific discounts for federal employees, but active-duty service members can get a discount during deployment or if they’re garaging a vehicle on a military base.

Pros
  • Low average premiums

  • Exceptional customer service ratings

  • Offers military-focused benefits

Cons
  • Only accessible to the military community and some government employees

  • No network of local insurance agents

  • Fewer discounts compared to competitors

It could be just the issue of using the phone instead of a direct email to the person I am referring to.

Pros
  • Affinity partnership discount may provide broad federal employee eligibility

How to qualify for federal employee car insurance discounts

To qualify for federal employee car insurance discounts, you’ll need to provide documentation proving your government employment during the car insurance quote process. Insurance companies may require you to verify your federal status.

Typically, you can verify this through a government-issued employee ID, a recent paystub showing your federal agency employer, or a membership card for a qualifying organization.[7]

Federal employees include people working for executive branch agencies, legislative offices, judicial branches, and independent federal organizations. This covers civilian employees of government agencies like the Department of Defense (DoD), the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the Department of Education (ED), and other federal departments.

Eligibility requirements vary by insurance company. Some insurers extend discounts to all federal workers regardless of agency, while others may have specific partnerships or affiliations that provide enhanced savings.

Other ways federal employees can save on car insurance

Beyond occupation-based discounts, federal employees can find multiple potential savings opportunities to reduce their insurance costs. Combining these strategies with federal employee car insurance discounts can significantly lower your insurance premiums.

Learn more about common auto insurance discounts below:

  • Safe driver discount: Maintaining a clean driving record free of accidents or violations can earn you substantial savings. Many insurers also offer an accident forgiveness program or a discount for experienced safe drivers.

  • Bundling discount: Combining your auto insurance with home insurance, life insurance, or renters insurance coverage through the same company can typically result in a discount. Insurers often provide discounts for bundling two or more insurance products.

  • Multi-car discount: Insuring multiple vehicles on a single policy reduces per-vehicle premiums and simplifies policy management.

  • Telematics programs: Usage-based insurance tracks your driving habits through a mobile app or device. Safe drivers with low mileage can potentially earn lower car insurance rates.

  • Mileage discounts: Federal employees with short commutes or those working remotely may qualify for low-mileage savings based on reduced driving exposure.

  • Payment discount: Setting up auto pay for your policy term can earn small but consistent savings on your premiums.

  • Safety features discount: Vehicles equipped with anti-theft systems, airbags, and advanced driver assistance technologies may qualify for reduced insurance costs.

What federal employee car insurance covers

Federal employee car insurance includes the same insurance coverage components as standard policies. The federal status provides access to discounts but doesn’t change the fundamental coverage types. Your needs will determine the insurance options and deductible levels you select.

Standard auto insurance policies include the following:

    Collision coverage

    Collision insurance covers damage to your vehicle from collisions with other vehicles or objects, regardless of fault.

  • illustration card https://a.storyblok.com/f/162273/x/665da91bf7/comprehensive-coverage.svg

    Comprehensive coverage

    Comprehensive coverage protects your vehicle from non-collision damage, like theft, vandalism, weather events, and animal strikes.

Federal employee car insurance FAQs

The following information can help answer your remaining questions about how being a federal employee can affect your car insurance.

  • Which companies have the best insurance for federal employees?

    No single insurer offers the best insurance coverage for federal employees, so it’s important to shop around. But some insurers, including GEICO, Liberty Mutual, and USAA, offer discounts to federal employees and military personnel.

  • Do federal contractors qualify for government employee discounts on insurance?

    Federal contractors may not qualify for federal employee car insurance discounts because they’re not direct government employees.

  • Can you stack federal employee discounts with other savings?

    Yes. You can combine federal employee discounts with other auto insurance savings, such as safe driver programs, bundling discounts, and mileage discounts. Ask your insurance company about all available incentives.

  • Do retired federal employees qualify for discounts?

    Eligibility requirements for retired federal employees vary by insurance company. Some insurers extend government employee discounts to retirees, while others limit discounts to active employees or members of eligible organizations.

  • Why do federal employees get insurance discounts?

    Insurance companies may offer discounts to federal employees because they view them as lower-risk customers with a secure job.

  • How much is the GEICO discount for federal employees?

    GEICO offers federal employees discounts of up to 12%, with additional savings of up to 15% for military members. Actual auto insurance rates vary based on factors like your driving record, vehicle, coverage selections, and location, so it’s best to request a personalized quote to see how much you can save. Check in with an agent at your local insurance agency if you have any questions.

Methodology

Insurify data scientists analyzed more than 90 million quotes served to car insurance applicants in Insurify’s proprietary database to calculate the premium averages displayed on this page. These premiums are real quotes that come directly from Insurify’s 500+ partner insurance companies in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. Quote averages represent the median price for a quote across the given coverage level, driver subset, and geographic area.

Unless otherwise specified, quoted rates reflect the average cost for drivers between 20 and 70 years old with a clean driving record and average or better credit (a credit score of 600 or higher).

Liability-only premium averages correspond to policies with the following coverage limits:

  • Bodily injury limits between state-minimum rates and $50,000 per person, $100,000 per accident
  • Property damage limits between $10,000 and $50,000
  • No additional coverage
Full-coverage premium averages correspond to the same bodily injury and property damage limits in addition to:
  • Comprehensive coverage with a $1,000 deductible
  • Collision coverage with a $1,000 deductible

Quotes for Allstate, Farmers, GEICO, State Farm, and USAA are estimates based on Quadrant Information Services’ database of auto insurance rates.
