A Green Card, also known as the International Motor Insurance Card, is a document that is issued by insurance providers in the UK, guaranteeing that the motorist has the necessary third-party motor insurance cover for travel in the country being travelled to.
You will need to request a Green Card from your insurer, or your company’s insurer if the vehicle you drive is covered by a company policy. It is advisable to do so approximately four to six weeks before you intend to travel.
Some countries also require separate insurance for trailers. This means that you would need a separate Green Card for your trailer.
