Truck Insurance Is Mandatory: What Are the Minimum Requirements?

Third-party liability insurance is required for every truck. This basic coverage only compensates for damage you cause to others with your truck. It is required by law, and you can easily purchase it if you have a valid driver’s license. This coverage is therefore the minimum you need to be allowed on the road.

Your Truck Insurance Coverage

We carefully assess the type of truck, compare a wide range of auto insurance policies, and help you choose the right coverage.

Third-Party Liability (Mandatory)

  • Damage to others
  • Theft, joyriding, and missing persons
  • Window damage
  • Damage caused by fire or natural disasters
  • Damage to one's own vehicle caused by a collision

Limited casco

  • Damage to others
  • Theft, joyriding, and missing persons
  • Window damage
  • Damage caused by fire or natural disasters
  • Damage to one's own vehicle caused by a collision

All Risk (Liability + Comprehensive)

  • Damage to others
  • Theft, joyriding, and missing persons
  • Window damage
  • Damage caused by fire or natural disasters
  • Damage to one's own vehicle caused by a collision

Partial coverage or comprehensive coverage: What's the difference?

Partial coverage insurance offers more comprehensive coverage than just liability insurance. This means you’re also covered for damage caused by theft, broken windows, fire, or storms. However, damage to your own vehicle resulting from a collision is not covered. Would you like comprehensive coverage (All Risk)? In that case, you’re also covered for vandalism and property damage to your own truck.

Insuring a Truck with Different Body Types

You can tailor your truck insurance to the specific body type of your vehicle. Insurance options are available for virtually every body type. For example:

Open

Enclosed with sliding tarps

Enclosed container

Container

Refrigerator-Freezer Combination

Open with loading and unloading equipment

Semi-trailer

A semi-trailer is often insured in conjunction with the corresponding tractor unit. In that case, the semi-trailer is covered under the tractor unit’s liability insurance. A separate insurance policy must always be purchased for the semi-trailer’s comprehensive coverage.

Please note: Some types of structures are subject to a specific risk assessment and require additional coverage or conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions About Truck Insurance

What is truck insurance, and what does it cover?

Truck insurance covers damage you cause to others with your truck. Depending on the coverage you choose, you can also include coverage for damage to your own vehicle through third-party liability and comprehensive coverage. The appropriate coverage depends on the truck’s use and value.

What types of truck insurance are available?

There are three main types: third-party liability, limited comprehensive, and full comprehensive. Third-party liability insurance covers only damage you cause to others with your truck. Limited comprehensive coverage also covers damage caused by, for example, fire or theft. Full comprehensive coverage also reimburses you for damage to your own truck.

Does the insurance also cover international trips?

Yes, most truck insurance policies provide standard coverage in Europe. For international trips, however, you must carry an international insurance certificate with you. Also, check whether your Green Card is valid in the countries where you’ll be driving. Additional insurance rules apply in some regions.

How can I save money on my truck insurance?

You can save money by comparing rates annually, choosing a higher deductible, or getting a multi-vehicle policy. If you drive accident-free for several years, you’ll also earn a premium discount. Limit additional coverages to what’s truly necessary, and consider whether comprehensive coverage is really needed.
