Each insurer required to provide evidence of motor vehicle liability insurance to an insured, pursuant to the requirements of NRS 690B.023 and NAC 690B.060, must file its own evidence of insurance card with the Division. The card must contain a logotype or other marking that identifies the company. A generic card provided by a rate service organization with a nonspecific watermark (such as the word "Nevada") does not fulfill this requirement. Approval of the ACORD 50 NV (auto insurance id card) has been withdrawn. These requirements apply to both permanent and temporary cards. NAC 690B.040 requires insurers to provide agents with an adequate supply of temporary cards. An agent who provides generic temporary cards to insureds rather than company-specific cards approved by the Commissioner is in violation of NRS 690B.023 and related regulations, and he or she may be subject to fines. For any questions concerning cards constituting evidence of motor vehicle liability insurance, please contact the Property and Casualty section of the Division at (775) 687-4270. Betty C.
