Green Card INGO

WHAT IS A GREEN CARD AND WHEN IS IT NEEDED?


The Green Card is an international insurance policy that is mandatory for all drivers traveling abroad by car. It provides financial protection in the event of an accident and is valid in 44 countries in Europe, Asia, and Africa. The Green Card policy guarantees that victims of an accident will receive compensation regardless of the country where the accident occurred.




Without a valid insurance policy, it is impossible to cross the border by car, as it confirms the availability of insurance coverage in accordance with the laws of the destination country. In Ukraine, the MTIBU (Motor Transport Insurance Bureau of Ukraine) controls the validity of policies and acts as a guarantor of payments under the Green Card system.


Please note! According to the new rules, which came into force on January 1, 2025, you need to apply for a Green Card at least one day before your planned departure. This means that it is no longer possible to buy insurance on the day of travel or at the border.


A Green Card for a car is issued through Visit Ukraine:


✔ Ensures legal travel abroad – without this document, crossing the border by car is impossible;

✔ Guarantees financial protection – covers expenses in case of damage to other road users;

✔ Recognized in all countries of the Green Card system – the policy is valid internationally, so there is no need to take out additional local insurance.



What is included in the Green Card coverage?


This insurance works similarly to the compulsory civil liability insurance (CTP) in Ukraine. It covers:


● Damage caused to the life and health of victims of road accidents;

● Expenses for compensation for material damage to property of third parties in the event of an accident in any country participating in the system.



What is the difference between an electronic Green Card policy and a paper one?


Both formats have the same legal force and are accepted in all countries that are members of the Green Card system. The main advantage of the electronic version is the ability to apply online at any time of the day and receive the policy by email. This saves time, as there is no need to visit the insurance company. The relevance and validity of such a policy can be easily checked through the MTIBU database.
