Utah Umbrella and Excess Liability Guide

The Utah Insurance Department’s property and casualty review standards cite Utah Code section 31A-22-304 for motor-vehicle liability minimums of $25,000, $65,000, and $15,000 on a split limit, or $80,000 on a single limit. The department’s auto comparison guide states the same bodily-injury pair, $25,000 per person and $65,000 per accident, and a property-damage minimum of $15,000 per accident. It also says the law requires personal injury protection of at least $3,000 per person, and that motorcycle policies do not include that no-fault coverage. An umbrella attaches above the liability limits, not above the $3,000 no-fault benefit. A policy written only to an older $50,000 per-accident bodily-injury figure does not meet the split limit the department now cites. 1,2

What Is Umbrella And Excess Liability?

Umbrella or excess insurance adds liability limits above the policies named in the quote after a covered claim exhausts their limits. It may fit if a contract sets higher limits; check which primary policies are listed and any gaps between them. Read the national Umbrella and excess liability guide.

Utah Requirements

RequirementDetails
Liability minimums the department cites for section 31A-22-304The review standards state $25,000, $65,000, and $15,000, or $80,000 combined. The comparison guide states $25,000 per person and $65,000 per accident for bodily injury, and $15,000 for property damage. Those are liability floors, not an umbrella minimum. The same guide states a separate $3,000 personal-injury-protection minimum. 1,2

What to Watch for in Utah

  • A single-limit policy has to reach $80,000, not the $65,000 bodily-injury accident figure

    The review standards list two ways to meet section 31A-22-304: the split limit of $25,000, $65,000, and $15,000, or a combined single limit of $80,000. A $65,000 combined limit matches only the bodily-injury accident number and leaves out the property-damage leg of the split. Read the declarations for which form was used before you set the umbrella’s underlying schedule. 1

  • No-fault benefits are $3,000 per person, and motorcycles are outside that coverage

    The comparison guide says personal injury protection pays medical expenses, loss of income, and essential services for people injured in the auto regardless of fault, including pedestrians the auto injures, with a minimum of $3,000 per person. It says motorcycle policies do not have that coverage, though medical payments can be added. Do not schedule an umbrella as if the $3,000 benefit is liability insurance, and do not assume a motorcycle policy failed because the no-fault line is absent. 2

  • The sample quotes in the comparison guide are not the legal minimum

    The same guide’s premium examples assume bodily injury of $50,000 per person and $100,000 per accident and property damage of $50,000. Those are the limits used to compare prices. The legal minimums are printed later: $25,000 and $65,000 bodily injury, $15,000 property damage, and $3,000 personal injury protection. Buy the umbrella over the policy that was actually issued, and do not treat the sample quote as the statute. 2

Providers With Documented State Licenses

These providers publish a national listing for Umbrella and excess liability; the state records document licenses for the entities and roles shown below. Some records rely on company-reported information rather than independent regulator verification. A national listing does not confirm the product is available in Utah. Check the regulator’s license lookup and confirm state availability for your business when requesting a quote.

  • Corgi

    Corgi Insurance Services, Inc.

    Insurance producer · checked 2026-09-28

    Corgi’s company producer-license table lists 50 jurisdictions: 49 states and the District of Columbia, including DC license 3003091619. New Mexico does not appear in the table and is not included here; the omission does not establish that Corgi is unlicensed there. The company-reported table has no stated as-of date and does not establish product availability. 13

    Corgi lists commercial umbrella liability insurance.

  • TechInsurance

    Specialty Program Group LLC

    Insurance producer · checked 2026-09-28

    TechInsurance’s current licensing page names Specialty Program Group LLC / SPG Insurance Solutions and lists state license numbers, but labels Rhode Island “Individual licenses” rather than identifying a license for the named agency. RI is omitted because this disclosure does not establish agency authority there; this is a search limitation, not an assertion that the company is unlicensed. The remaining state entries are company-reported and are not an insurance product availability map. 16

    TechInsurance arranges commercial umbrella insurance for small businesses.

  • Vouch

    Vouch Specialty Insurance Services, LLC

    Insurance producer, Surplus-lines broker · checked 2026-09-28

    Vouch’s licenses page, effective January 16, 2025, lists producer licenses in all 50 states and DC. Its separate surplus-lines table includes Idaho number 870820, while a footnote says Georgia and Idaho do not issue agency-level surplus-lines licenses. Because those statements conflict for Idaho, this record keeps Idaho producer-only and does not treat the table number as established agency surplus-lines authority. The page is company-reported and does not establish product availability. 17

    Vouch lists umbrella among core coverages for technology companies.

Who Regulates Insurance in Utah

Utah Insurance Department

The Utah Insurance Department regulates licensed insurance companies and producers, offers a public licensee search, and accepts complaints about property/casualty insurance. Complaint jurisdiction depends on policy type and place of issue; employer self-funded plans are outside the Department’s authority. 3,4,5

Surplus-lines tax and stamping office

Reported tax rate. 4.25% of gross premium including policy fees, plus 0.18% stamping fee 6,7,8,9,10

For Utah-home-state surplus-lines coverage, Utah charges 4.25% of gross premiums including policy fees, less returned premiums, and the Surplus Line Association of Utah collects a 0.18% stamping fee. Utah law requires a policy notice that the nonadmitted insurer is not protected by any Utah guaranty association; the state’s current guidance says a good-faith admitted-market effort is generally required unless the coverage is on the export list.

Questions to Ask Before You Buy in Utah

  1. Is the underlying policy on the $25,000/$65,000/$15,000 split, or on an $80,000 combined single limit?
  2. Is personal injury protection at least $3,000 per person, or is the vehicle a motorcycle that the guide says does not carry that coverage?
  3. Does the umbrella’s schedule of underlying insurance match the issued liability limits rather than the $50,000/$100,000/$50,000 sample quote?
