Insurance assessment

You have to insure your one-day licence plate when you drive your car to the RDW testing station yourself. Insurance for your one-day licence plate is of course only valid on the day of the inspection. As soon as your car has been approved and has a Dutch registration number, you can take out a normal car insurance policy. The insurance is only valid in the Netherlands. If you want to drive the car from abroad to the Netherlands, you will have to inquire in the country concerned whether and how you are allowed to drive the car there.

When you are on the public roads with a car, you are legally obliged to have this vehicle insured against the risk of third-party liability (WA). If you cause damage to third parties with your vehicle, this insurance will pay the damage to the injured party/parties. With most insurers it is not possible to take out regular third-party liability insurance on the basis of a one-day license plate. Therefore, we have a one-day car insurance.

Alpina.nl offers you the possibility to insure the one-day registration plate temporarily. This temporary insurance provides the vehicle with third-party coverage during your drive to and from the RDW inspection station.

How does a one-day licence work?

The one-day licence plate is a special licence plate that is only valid for one day. You can use this registration number to drive an imported car to an RDW testing station. If you have purchased a car abroad it does not yet have a Dutch registration number. Without a Dutch license plate you cannot get car insurance, but without car insurance you cannot drive the car on public roads. You can drive the car on a trailer to the inspection appointment, but it is of course easier if you can just drive in it. With a one-day license plate you can still insure the car and thus drive to the appointment.

How long does it take to apply for a one-day licence?

The application for a one-day licence may take a few days, but will be sent as soon as possible. You apply for a one-day licence when you make your inspection appointment with the RDW. You will then receive a one-day licence via a link. You must arrange for the number to be put on your registration plates yourself. So you will not be sent a registration plate.

Through our website you can insure your one-day vehicle directly online and pay the premium via iDeal. As soon as we receive payment, the insurance certificate will be sent by e-mail. The one-day licence plate insurance can be renewed once. The effective date may be in the future, but not more than 90 days.

Single-vehicle insurance conditions

When you have bought a car abroad and you want to import it into the Netherlands, the car has to undergo a test at one of the RDW testing stations. You can have your car transported on a trailer or a car ambulance, or you can drive your car to the inspection station yourself.

If you transport your car yourself to a testing station, you should apply to RDW for a free one-day registration certificate when you make an appointment for the test. This application can take a few days. When you have received the one-day licence plate (black letters on a white plate), you have to mount it on the car and drive it to the inspection station.

Please note! This registration number is only valid in the Netherlands and only on the day of the inspection.

How much does a one-day licence cost?

Applying for a one-day license plate costs nothing. You can apply for the one-day registration plate free of charge at the RDW when making your inspection appointment. You then have to take care of a license plate and you have to insure the car afterwards. At Alpina, you can easily take out your one-day registration plate insurance. First, apply for your day registration plate at the RDW. Then, in a few minutes, you can take out your one-day insurance with us.

Also, the licence plate for a one-day vehicle does not have to cost anything. You can also make the licence plates yourself. To do this, you can, for example, use a piece of white card on which you put the number plate with an indelible black pen. A condition is that the number plates must remain legible even in bad weather.

Insuring one-day-old license plates

Although a one-day licence is for one day only, you must insure it. Without car insurance you are not allowed to drive your car on public roads, even if it is only to a RDW testing station. That is why there is a special one-day licence plate insurance. You pay a one-off amount of premium, so that your car is insured on a certain day. As soon as your car has been approved and has a Dutch registration number, you can take out a regular car insurance. Do you have any questions about cheap insurance for a one-day license plate?
