Renewing motor insurance in North Macedonia typically involves contacting an authorized insurance company, providing vehicle and personal details, and paying the premium. The renewed policy provides coverage for a specified period, often one year.

Your timing

Most motor insurance policies are valid for one year. It is advisable for vehicle owners to initiate the renewal process a few weeks before their current policy's expiration date to ensure continuous coverage and avoid any potential lapses or penalties for uninsured driving. Processing times are generally quick once all documents are submitted and payment is made.

Start 14 days ahead

This allows for comparison of offers from different insurance companies and ensures the renewal is completed before the existing policy expires.

The cost of motor insurance varies based on factors such as vehicle type, engine size, age of the vehicle, the owner's driving history, and the specific insurance company and coverage selected. Vehicle owners should obtain quotes from multiple providers to compare prices and coverage options.

What commonly goes wrong

  • Ensure continuous coverage by renewing the policy before the current one expires to avoid penalties for uninsured driving.
  • Carefully review the terms and conditions of the new policy, including coverage limits and exclusions, before making a payment.
  • Compare offers from several authorized insurance companies to find the most suitable coverage and premium.
  • Confirm the validity period and type of coverage, especially if traveling internationally, as some policies may require additional 'Green Card' insurance.
