Legal nuances: what the law on the inspection of policies on the state number

I agree. Federal Law No. 40-FZ “On OSAGO” (last version of 2026), insurance companies are required to transfer data on concluded contracts in the PSA not later than 5 working days from the date of registration. This means that, theoretically, any policy should be available for verification through a government database. In practice, however,

• ⚖️ Confidentiality: For the state number you will receive only general information (policy number, expiration date). Full data (name of the policyholder, address) is available only to the policyholder or authorized persons (for example, traffic police).
• 📜 Liability for forgery: Using a fake OSAGO policy is punishable by Art. 327 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation ("Fake documents") and entails a fine of up to 80,000 rubles or correctional work.
• 🔍 Checking for an accidentIf you have been in an accident and the second participant does not have a policy, you have the right to request a check through the database. PSA on the spot (via mobile Internet).

Important: from 2023, electronic policies of OSAGO are equated to paper ones, but their presence must be confirmed through the use of the law. PSA Or the insurer's personal account. If the traffic police inspector demands to show the “original”, show him the electronic version on the phone or ask him to check through their database – this is legal (letter of the Ministry of Internal Affairs No. 13/5-12445 from 2022).
