Why should I choose Sterling Green Card cover for my trip to the Balkans?

The Balkans takes its name from the Balkan mountains and is a region made up of EU and Non-EU countries. So if you’re planning on driving to, or around the region in your own vehicle – then you may want to explore Sterling’s Green Card Insurance.

Please note that it is no longer a legal requirement to have a Green Card while travelling in the Balkans and other EU regions, but it can offer peace of mind while travelling in a different country.

If the Balkans is on your travel destination bucket list, call us and we can help you with the appropriate insurance.

We can access various insurance providers to find the best deal for Green Card cover. Your vehicle must be UK-registered and we can arrange travel documents before your departure.

Green Card insurance is an internationally recognised certificate of insurance that confirms the visiting motorists have the minimum compulsory cover required by the law of the country visited.

It can be quite daunting to plan a driving trip to the Balkans, but you need to be able to travel with confidence. The Green Card can ensure you have the right insurance cover for the country in the event of you getting into a scrape. That’s why you should choose Sterling’s specialist Green Card insurance for driving throughout Europe and beyond.

It is not a legal requirement in many EU countries to have a Green Card, but it will give you peace of mind and make things much easier if you need to make a claim or exchange details with another driver or the police.

  • Get your Green Card paperwork organised in plenty of time before departure.
  • Make sure the Green Card is valid for all the countries you are driving in.
  • The Green Card documentation must have a minimum of 15 days cover from the date of travel.
  • Motorists must travel with a printed copy of the Green Card paperwork – and it must be on green paper to be valid.  
  • Keep up with the Government guidance if the UK leaves the EU without a deal on 31 October 2019.

The Balkans is a diverse region of southeast Europe with beautiful and varied landscape that’s ready to explore. Parts were marred by conflict during the 90s and early millennium – but rebuilding and regeneration means the area is attracting more tourists.

Countries that make up the Balkans include: Bosnia & Herzegovina, Montenegro, Macedonia (TFYROM), Serbia, Slovenia, Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia and Albania.
