What you should know during the sale of your vehicle?

If you are selling your vehicle, then you cannot legally end your insurance contract, since it is transferred to the new owner. This means that it is reasonable to add the value of the unused insurance days to the price of the vehicle. After the re-registration of the vehicle, the new owner must amend the insurance contract as soon as possible.

If you do not use your vehicle for a while

A vehicle registered in the traffic register may remain uninsured for a maximum period of 12 months. If you do not use your vehicle for an even longer period, it might be reasonable to remove it from the traffic register, because the vehicle is subject to mandatory insurance after 12 months.

For example, if you have a motorcycle, it is sufficient to keep it insured for a short period of time once a year.
