The Compulsory Insurance Bureau includes 15 companies, 11 of which are authorized to sell policies of compulsory insurance of the third party liability.
After the law 'On compulsory insurance' came into force in December 2011, the basic cost of an insurance policy on CTP amounts to 50 manats and is used in regard to cars with an engine capacity of up to 1500 cubic centimeters. With the increasing volume of the engine (from 1,500 to 5,000 cubic centimeters), coefficients from 1.5 to five are added up to the cost. Coefficient five is used for cars with an engine capacity of over 5,000 cubic centimeters.
Previously, the insurance premium for all passenger cars was 10 manats.
