Where can you buy car insurance in Georgia?

Mandatory cover for foreign cars, rentals and policies.

Answered at: Checked at:

Short answer

If you enter Georgia in a foreign-registered car, you need mandatory third-party liability insurance, bought at the border or online before entry for the length of your trip. Rental cars usually include basic insurance, with extended cover available for a fee. Owners of Georgian-registered cars buy policies from insurance companies; check which are mandatory before you travel.

Why

  1. Mandatory insurance for foreign cars was introduced in 2018.
  2. Without a policy, a foreign car may be refused entry or fined.
  3. Comprehensive cover against theft and damage is optional.

Details

Keep your policy on your phone and printed. In an accident, call the patrol police on 112 and don't leave before the paperwork is done.

Tip

Buy the policy online before the trip to save time at the border, and keep it on your phone.

What may differ

The policy cost depends on the length of stay and vehicle type, and rental cars are insured by the company.
