About MTPL
insurance
MTPL insurance is a form of liability insurance that is obligatory to all motor vehicles that have been registered in Estonia and participate in road traffic.
Since July 2012, mopeds have been made liable for ordinary motor insurance policies. In other words, motor insurance provides a sense of security for the insured property owner as damages will be compensated and even third party participants do not have to pay for the damages themselves.
Beneficiaries
Damages caused in traffic are compensated by the insurance company to the party or parties.
Injured parties are considered to be the owner of the vehicle, authorised user or the co-passenger who was present during the accident, pedestrians and a third party (traffic sign, garden of private property etc) when their property has been damaged by the road accident.
