How to check an electronic OSAGO policy for the authenticity of the PCA?

Recently, electronic compulsory motor liability insurance has begun to spread actively. More and more people are trying to buy MTPL via the Internet every day. But how not to run into scammers? Even purchasing an electronic policy on a supposedly official website does not guarantee the security of the transaction.

After purchasing a real electronic MTPL, your policy is automatically included in a single database. Be sure to check the authenticity of the electronic OSAGO policy at RSA.

You can check your MTPL policy either on our website (on this page) or on the RSA website.

Check OSAGO using the RSA database

Today, the PCA insurer database allows you to check your insurance in different ways: by policy number, by car number, etc. There are three verification options in total:

There are three ways to check your insurance using the RSA database:

1) Check the status of the current OSAGO form by number

You can check your MTPL policy and find out its validity period using the RSA (Russian Union of Motor Insurers) database.

Status of checks of the MTPL policy in RSA after registration

• “is with the policyholder” - this status means that the policy has come into force, and pay attention to the period of insurance and the name of the insurer, they must match the data issued at the conclusion;

• “is with the insurance company” - means that the insurance agent has not yet made changes to the database, in this case you need to wait 1-2 days, if this status is listed for more than two days, then you need to contact the insurers.

• “no longer valid”, “printed by the manufacturer” or “lost” - these statuses may indicate that the policy is invalid, in which case you need to contact law enforcement authorities and your insurance company.

Such a check does not give a 100% guarantee that you have a real policy; it is quite difficult to recognize duplicates, since they are issued with the same insurance periods, so you need to additionally check which car was insured under this policy; you can perform this check by filling out the form below. As a result of the check, you will receive the following information: the insurance company, the status of the contract, as well as the VIN number of the car. If all the data agrees, then the insurance policy is real.

2) Find out which car is insured by the OSAGO insurance policy form number

To obtain this information, fill out the form at the following link:

Where can I get a real, original MTPL policy?

In order to be guaranteed to receive a real policy, the easiest way is to apply for it on our website by clicking on this link. By filling out the form once, you can compare the prices of insurance companies and choose the most suitable option for you.

3) Checking insurance by vehicle VIN number

This type of check is the most detailed, in addition to information about the insurance policy, here you can find out how many people are included in the insurance.

ATTENTION! If the verification form does not load, try refreshing this page or wait a little; the speed of loading the form depends on the load on the database on the PCA side. If the loading did not occur on our website, try going to the RSA website, verification pages: 1 form, 2 form, 3 form

How to check your MTPL policy for authenticity online

Increasing cases of counterfeiting of MTPL forms, as well as the use of those listed as lost or issued to an insurance company whose license was subsequently revoked, led to the development of RSA a service for checking their validity. The opportunity to check the authenticity of an OSAGO policy online is provided to everyone without restrictions. This allows you not only to check your insurance, but also the policy of the third party who caused harm in the accident. This article will analyze all the ways to check the authenticity of the form, and also give advice on what to do if it turns out to be fake and is not in the database.

How to check the authenticity of an MTPL policy?

Thanks to modern technologies, checking whether the compulsory motor liability insurance policy is valid is not difficult - you can do it yourself. You can check it directly at the conclusion, both by visual signs and by the correspondence of the information specified in the contract to reality. Among the visual signs you should pay attention to the following:

The size of the form is larger than A4 format (the difference is about 1 cm);
the presence of protection watermarks with the logo of the Russian Union of Motor Insurers, as well as the presence of multi-colored fibers throughout the entire area of the form;
the presence of a soldered metal strip along the left edge, which penetrates the entire length of the form;
The policy number must contain exactly 10 digits, while the series for printed ones should currently be EEE (until 05/01/2015 the CCC series was in effect) or XXX for electronic ones.

In addition, it is necessary to ensure that all information is filled out, and in cases where specific items do not need to be filled out, they should be crossed out. The amount of the insurance premium indicated directly on the form must match the amount actually paid and correspond to that written out on the receipt, which must be issued without fail.

An important role in the validity of the policy is the insurer's authority to enter into MTPL contracts. This authority is confirmed by a special license, which at the time of registration must be valid, that is, it must not be revoked or suspended.

Checking the form by number

The simplest and most accurate way is to check the MTPL insurance policy online in a specially designed form on the RSA website: To check, just indicate the series that must be selected from the proposed options, and the contract number, and also pass a check to confirm the security code - for this you need to specify the code from the picture (each time the system issues a new confirmation code).

If everything is done correctly, a new window will open, which will contain information regarding the specified policy contained in a single database. The correct status is considered to be “Located by the policyholder”, and the term of insurance and the name of the insurer must match the one issued at the conclusion.

When making a request immediately after concluding a compulsory motor liability insurance contract, the system may indicate that it is “Hosted by the insurer” - in such a case, you should not panic. This is due to the fact that the insurance company employees did not confirm the conclusion of the policy in the system. If such a status is listed on a form issued quite a long time ago, then you should contact the insurer and clarify the current situation.

Statuses “Lost” or “No longer valid” should cause concern, since they indicate that the contract is invalid as of the date of verification. In this case, you must contact the insurer and the police. In any case, you will have to purchase a valid policy again.

The method described above for checking an MTPL insurance policy online has a high percentage of reliability, but will not protect against duplicates, since the database will also display the status “Losed by the policyholder.” It is quite difficult to identify a duplicate - fraudsters issue them with identical insurance periods. If you suspect a duplicate on the official RSA website, you can also check which car is insured under a specific policy using the following link: dkbm-web.autoins.ru/dkbm-web-1.0/osagovehicle.htm After entering all the necessary information, including indicating the date of the request , the following information will be generated below the request form:

registration plate of the insured vehicle;
VIN number or body number;
contract status;
name of the insurer.

You just need to check the data from a single database with the printed form and documents for the car. The policy is a duplicate if the information regarding the vehicle does not match. In this case, you must act in the same way as with the statuses “Lost” or “Expired”.

How to check your MTPL insurance policy online using your car number?

Situations arise in which it is necessary to find out not only information about whether the car is insured or not, but also the number of the form itself. For example, when it is lost, and in order to restore it you need to contact the insurer and provide the policy number, or if you are involved in an accident, if the culprit has not provided compulsory motor liability insurance, then you can check whether his car is insured or not.

Finding out about the availability of an MTPL insurance contract is quite simple. On a special service on the RSA website at dkbm-web.autoins.ru/dkbm-web-1.0/policy.htm you must fill in the following data:

identification number (VIN);
registration plate - you must enter the number in Russian letters indicating the region code;
body number;
chassis number.

When checking an OSAGO insurance policy online by number, you can indicate all the information in total or, for example, just the registration plate. If only one item is indicated and the MTPL agreement is not found in the database, then other information must be entered to complete the correct request. It should be noted that all data is entered manually and human error is not excluded. If there are errors when entering this information, as a rule, they will be made in the policy form itself.

The request field also indicates the date on which it is made - this will help to find out whether the insurance was valid on a certain date. This information will help victims of road accidents. Any date can be specified; if it is necessary to verify the authenticity of OSAGO, then the current date should be set.

The response to the request not only contains information about the series and number of the concluded MTPL agreement, but also information regarding the list of drivers, in particular, whether insurance has been concluded with or without restrictions. This allows you to find out whether a particular driver was allowed to drive a vehicle.

To clarify information about the driver’s permit, you must additionally enter information from his driver’s license (series and number). The series of a Russian driver's license contains both numbers and Russian letters or only numbers (consists of the first 4 characters), and the number always contains only 6 digits. If the driver is cleared to drive on a specific date, the system will issue a green response with information about admission. It should be noted that it is impossible to determine the insurance policy number simply by the driver's license number.

Checking the clearance of a specific driver will help not only during an inspection as part of an accident, but will also allow you to monitor the work of the insurer when making changes to the list of persons allowed to drive. Quite often, insurer specialists make mistakes when entering information into a single database, and subsequently, when checked by traffic police officers, the data on drivers or cars does not correspond to reality. In such cases, it is necessary to contact the insurer with a request to enter correct data into the unified RCA database.

In conclusion, it should be noted that you can check the authenticity of your MTPL policy online yourself, and if the form is not available in the system, you must first contact the insurer and provide the completed form for an internal investigation. Large insurers monitor their reputation, so all issues with invalid forms, including those issued by fraudulent agents, are resolved by the insurance company's security service. In such situations, if the insurance company does not solve the problem or refuses to solve it, you should definitely contact the police. Quite often, using forms of compulsory motor liability insurance policies, which, although invalid, the client learns about this only after the accident, responsible insurers make payments in order to preserve their reputation in the insurance market. There are also high chances for clients with an invalid policy to receive compensation in court if it is proven that the borrower properly issued a policy with an agent or employee of the insurer and paid for it in full in cash.

Unified OSAGO database (check policy)

Today, the insurers' database allows you to check compulsory motor liability insurance in different ways: by the policy number, by the car number, etc. And vice versa - by the insurance number, for example, you can find out the car number. There are three verification options:

1. Checking the status of the form by its number. You can check your paper or electronic MTPL policy against the AIS RSA (Russian Union of Motor Insurers) database and find out its validity period below.

This form is for checking both paper policies and electronic policies of the XXX series purchased via the Internet! Usually, electronic insurance is included in the database immediately after registration, but sometimes due to the workload of the database, this can take several days. The correct status for valid insurance is “held by the policyholder” (but if immediately after purchase the status is still “held by the insurer”, then this may be normal - the agent may not have had time to make changes to the database, wait a couple of days and only then sound the alarm) . Definitely “bad statuses” of an MTPL policy are “lost in force” (why exactly it lost force can be seen in more detail by checking below) or “lost”. The status “printed by the manufacturer” means that such a form was not even handed over to the insurer.

Such a check does not give 100% confidence that you have a valid policy (after all, fraudsters could make a “duplicate” of the real form), but it allows you to reject obvious fakes and stolen forms. But in order to exclude “duplicates” you need to check which car is insured under your policy...

2. Find out which car is insured using a specific form. In addition to the license plate number, VIN code or body number, in the results you can find out a more detailed status of the form, for example, why exactly the insurance is not valid (the contract could have been terminated early or the policy could have been lost by the insurance company):

3. Find out the MTPL policy number by state number, VIN or body number + check whether the driver is included in the insurance . This check is the reverse of the previous one, here, based on the car’s data, you will find out which insurance company it is insured with, the policy number and its type (limited or unlimited). Checking by VIN is the most complete. It is searched by license plate number only if this information was provided by the insurer (they do not always do this).

If the insurance has a limited list of drivers, then the system will offer to check, using the number and series of the driver’s license, whether a certain driver is included in the insurance (this option appears in the second step after).

If you have recently added someone to your MTPL policy or made other changes to the data, then according to regulations, insurance companies are required to make changes to the RSA database within 5 days. Therefore, do not be alarmed if after a couple of days the changes have not yet been reflected in the AIS RSA database.

The last check is also useful for checking a used car before purchasing. After all, the presence of two simultaneously valid MTPL policies on one VIN number (or GRZ) can be a “bell” that the car is a “double”. In this case, I also recommend checking the VIN using the technical inspection database (in this case, it is a bad sign that the car regularly undergoes maintenance in one region or another).
