Car Insurance is Mandatory for Drivers in Spain

As of 1995, Spanish law requires that all vehicles be covered with at least minimum insurance that would compensate any damage incurred against a third party. Approximately 3 percent of vehicles on Spanish roads are not covered by this basic insurance and many of these are young people driving motor scooters and motorcycles.

Beware that Spanish police, particularly the Guardia Civil, are taking special care to find drivers without insurance in order to help them rectify their situation. The Guardia Civil have the technology to check a vehicle’s insurance status on the spot which makes. In addition there is an agreement between the insurance industry and the police that allows the latter to check the records of the former in order to identify uninsured vehicles. The crack down on uninsured drivers is therefore complete.

The price for driving without insurance ranges from 600 to 3,000 euros and the exact amount of the fine depends on what type of vehicle you are driving, what the vehicle is used for and how long you have been driving without insurance.
