Everyone likes to travel abroad. Some citizens prefer to go on vacation in their own car. When traveling abroad, the car owner must also provide a "green card". Because it is stipulated by an international treaty.
What is a "green card" and why is it needed?
Many drivers ask such a question, since few people are familiar with such a rule. This card was created specifically for use when traveling abroad in your own car. Since an accident can happen in any country, from which no one is insured, it is possible to get into an accident even abroad, and the damage caused to the other car can be quite considerable. That is, in other words, Green card insurance compensates for liability to other car owners. In this case, a "green card" was created. It got this name because of its color. He is just green. It is worth noting that this card can be of 2 types: 1) the one that can be used only in some countries; 2) the one that operates in all countries.
Depending on the country in which the accident occurred, a certain amount of money will be paid. Every driver can issue it. The most important thing is that the car is registered with the state. The card is valid in most European countries. For example, in the Czech Republic, Slovenia, Slovakia, Great Britain, Portugal, Germany and many other European countries.
In order to issue a "green card", you need to come to an employment agency abroad and apply for such a document. Then the company employee will ask to provide a specific package of documents. The card will be ready within 30 days. The insurance period itself can be 1 hour. Such a card is similar to the OSAGO policy, but at the same time such a policy is valid only on the territory of Ukraine, and in order for the car to be protected from an accident, a "green card" is used abroad.
As a result, it should be said that according to Ukrainian legislation, as well as an international agreement, every driver who decided to go to rest or work abroad in his own car must obtain a "green card". It is in this way that he insures his liability for payment of funds to third parties. If it is not there, then in the event of an emergency, you will have to pay a huge amount of money.
