Driver Licence
If officers cannot check the insurance in the insured-vehicle database (FIVA), what details must the insurance payment receipt contain, as a minimum, to prove the cover is valid?
Reviewed on 7 Oct 2026
- A Only the driver's name
- ✓ The insurer, the registration number, the period of cover and a statement of the compulsory insurance cover
- C Only the registration date
- D The driving licence number
Why this is the correct answer
Officers check that insurance is valid by consulting the insured-vehicle database (FIVA). If that is not possible, the receipt for the current premium is valid proof, provided it shows at least the insurer, the registration number, the period of cover and a statement of the compulsory cover (art. 14, RD 1507/2008).
