Motor third party liability insurance
Motor Third Party Liability Insurance is a legally mandatory insurance that every vehicle must have at the time of annual registration. The premium (rate) of this insurance is state regulated and is the same in all insurance companies.
With this insurance policy you transfer your responsibility for the damages caused to "third parties" with your vehicle, i.e. to the other participants in traffic, in accordance with the insurance conditions of this policy. In such case the insurance company assumes the responsibility for compensation for damage (material and non-material) to the other participants in traffic that was caused by your vehicle.
The premium amount decreases over the years, unless you have caused damage to third parties for the duration of the previous policy.
