Frequently asked questions
Yes. For legal purposes you must have at least third party liability insurance for any vehicle you have in France. The one exception is if you declare the vehicle off road (UK SORN equivalent). You must have the certificate confirming ”Le retrait de la circulation d’un vehicule”.
Car and motor vehicle insurance policies through CA Britline provide either Fully Comprehensive or Third Party, Fire & Theft cover. But that’s not all! Other services can include personal injury cover, breakdown & roadside assistance, courtesy car and various discounts in our reward scheme.
If you have an accident in France you must complete a document called “Le Constat Amiable d’Accident Automobile” or “Constat Européen d’Accident”, ideally with the other party, at the time of the accident. This is provided with your policy documents and should remain in the glove box. You should each send a copy to your respective Insurance companies, within 5 working days. The report will enable your insurer to determine the level of responsibility of each of the parties involved in the accident.
Our vehicle insurance policies include an assistance help line for you to call if your car is immobilised.
