Can I print OSAGO by car number - what the law says

I agree. Federal Law No. 40-FZ (on CTP), an electronic policy is equated to a paper policy if it is registered in a single database. PSA. This means that the traffic police inspector can check its presence on the database, even if you do not have a printout. In practice, however,

  • 📄 Paper copy It may be necessary to register an accident (especially if the second participant does not have access to the Internet).
  • 🚔 Inspectors of the traffic police The right to request a printout if they are unable to check the policy online (for example, if the signal is weak).
  • 💰 Penalty for lack of insurance - 800 rubles (art. 12.37 CAO), even if the policy is issued but not presented.

In 2026, you can print OSAGO by car number only if the policy is issued for this vehicle and entered into the PSA database. If the insurance is issued for another owner (for example, when renting or leasing), it will not work to find it by the state number - the data of the policy or the name of the insured will be required.

It is also worth remembering that from January 1, 2023, all new CTP policies are issued only in electronic form (except for some regions). This makes the recovery process easier, but requires access to the internet.

Official ways to find OSAGO by car number

There are three proven ways to access an electronic policy through a state number. All of them are free and legal:

  1. Service PCA (dkbm-web.autoins.ru) - the main register of all existing OSAGO policies.
  2. Personal account of the insurance companywhere the policy was issued.
  3. Public services portal (If the policy is linked to your account)

Let us examine each of them in detail.

1. Search through the PCA service (the most reliable method)

Service dkbm-web.autoins.ru This is the official base of all existing OSAGO policies. To find your policy by car number:

Go to the site. dkbm-web.autoins.ru

Enter the captcha and press "Find"

If the policy is found, click “Print” or save PDF

-->

Important: The service will show only those policies that are issued in your name or on the owner of the car (if you are inscribed in insurance as an admitted driver). If the car is in leasing or rent, this method may not work.

💡

If the PSA service does not find the policy, check the correctness of entering the state number. Sometimes the problem is in an extra space or incorrect letter (for example, "B" instead of "B").

2. Personal account of the insurance company

If you know which company issued OSAGO, you can use her personal account. For example:

Usually, it is enough to enter the state number or policy number in the section "My policies". If you forget the password from your personal account, it can be restored by email or phone number.

What to do if the insurance company goes bankrupt?

If your insurance company loses its license or goes bankrupt, the insurance policy is automatically transferred to the insurance company. PSA. In this case, it can be restored only through the service. dkbm-web.autoins.ru. It is pointless to contact a former insurance company - they are not required to provide services.

  1. Sign in to the gosuslugi.ru.
  2. Go to the Services → Transport and Driving → OSAGO.
  3. In the list, find the current policy and click “Look/Print”.

⚠️ Attention: Public services display only those policies that were issued through this portal or synchronized with the insurance company. If you bought OSAGO in the office or on another site, it may not be there.

Alternative methods (if the official ones do not work)

If none of the official methods helped, you can try alternatives. Beware, though – some services may be fraudulent or offer paid services for something that can be done for free.

1. Mobile applications of insurance companies

Many insurers offer mobile apps where you can quickly find and print a policy. For example:

  • 📱 RESO-Guarantee - Reso Drive appendix

  • 📱 VTB Insurance - VTB Insurance

The advantage of applications is that they often store information about policies in offline mode, which is convenient if you need to urgently present insurance without the Internet.

2. Contacting the insurance company by phone

If you do not have access to the Internet, you can call the support of your insurance company and ask to send the policy by email or fax. Hotline numbers:

Insurance company Phone. Email for request

3. Paid services – is it worth the risk?

On the Internet you can find sites offering to “find OSAGO by state number” for a fee (usually 200-500 rubles). We do not recommend using them., because:

  • 🔍 Official OSAGO data is not for sale They can only be obtained through the PCA or insurance company.
  • 📜 Fake policy is equated to driving without insurance - fine up to 800 rubles + possible problems in an accident.
