Travel safely

When planning a trip abroad or already being there by your own car, it is important not only to prepare the necessary documents and check the technical condition of the car, but also to take care of insurance, because the Ukrainian policy of OSAGO is not valid abroad. 

To protect yourself from unforeseen expenses before traveling, a car owner should take care of a Green Card policy in advance. 

We remind you! A new opportunity to obtain a Ukrainian driving licence with delivery abroad has become available. This service is very convenient for Ukrainian citizens living in other countries. The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine has introduced this service, which makes the process of exchanging a driving licence more convenient and affordable. How to use the service and what are its benefits - read here.
