Simplify people’s lives, remove paperwork, remove the risk of fines”: the French government has specified the modalities for removing from April 2024 the green sticker and the insurance certificate that motorists had to systematically have.
“All motorized vehicles remain subject to this insurance obligation which does not change,” underlined the office of the Minister of Economy and Finance Bruno Le Maire during a call with journalists. The decree should be published in the coming days.
Concretely, the green sticker to be placed on the windshield and the insurance certificate to be kept in the vehicle will be replaced by an entry, within 72 hours following taking out an insurance contract, in a dematerialized file of insured vehicles (FVA) which law enforcement officers will be able to access “from their digital tools on board while on patrol”. In the event of renewal or subscription to a new contract from April 2024, insurers will have to send “a memo” to the insured detailing their contract. Failure to affix the sticker and failure to present the certificate are currently (and until April 1) punishable by a fine of 35 euros.
