What is temporary car insurance?
Temporary car insurance is valid for 1 or 15 days. When you have to go to the RDW inspection, you can take out the 1-day insurance. If you are going to export the vehicle, you can choose the 15-day coverage. In these 15 days you can drive the car carefree throughout Europe. After 15 days, the coverage automatically expires.
With the 1-day insurance you only have coverage in the Netherlands during the drive from your home to the RDW and back for the day of the inspection. With the 15-day temporary insurance, you have coverage throughout Europe.
The insurance only provides coverage for damage to other vehicles (legal liability, third-party damage). It does not cover damage to your own vehicle.
This insurance is only available to individuals. So for business purposes, you cannot take out temporary car insurance.

Do you want to insure a car temporarily, but your insurance company does not know about temporary car insurance? Through Alpina, you can get temporary car insurance that covers the vehicle for 15 days on a Third Party Liability (TPL) basis.
Green card for temporary car insurance
Alpina issues a green card with the 15-day temporary car insurance policy. After those 15 days, coverage automatically expires. Note! The insurance does not cover damage to your own vehicle.
International insurance certificate (green card)
With the 15-day coverage, you will receive the international insurance certificate - the green card - immediately via e-mail (this can be done 24 hours a day and 7 days a week), and in case of a Dutch postal address, by mail the next working day. If desired, you can print the green card. It is not compulsory to print the international insurance certificate on green paper, but not doing so can cause problems abroad. We therefore recommend that you always wait for the original international insurance certificate or, if this is not possible, print the green card on 'green card paper' (available in bookstores) or on other green paper.

Frequently asked questions
How can I cancel a temporary car insurance?
The insurance can be cancelled up to the effective date of the cover, provided it is on a working day and before 17:00. If the policyholder is or has been covered, the green card cannot be cancelled via the right of cancellation.
Is temporary car insurance also available for other vehicles?
The temporary insurance is not only for passenger cars but also for vans, trucks and motorhomes.
What should I do in case of damage?
With temporary insurance, when you have caused a damage with the vehicle, you and the other party must fill out a claim form. Normally, a claim form consists of two pieces. You give the so-called print-through to the other party.
On your part you also need to fill in the back. You can then send the claim form to:
Alpina
PO Box 63
3400 AB IJsselstein
T: 030-6883700
Can the temporary car insurance be renewed?
The 15-day temporary car insurance cannot be renewed. If the vehicle has a foreign license plate, then you must purchase insurance in the country for which the license plate was issued.
Can the third-party cover be extended?
It is not possible to extend the WA coverage. The temporary insurance gives an exclusive 15-day WA coverage. There is no coverage for damage to the own car.
