Drivers in Romania can prove their valid RCA insurance without needing a printed policy. They can show documents on mobile devices or have police verify through a national database. Regulations since 2020 allow electronic proof, but many drivers remain unaware. Failing to have valid insurance can lead to fines between 1,000 and 2,000 lei and the retention of the vehicle registration certificate. The distinction between the RCA contract and policy is important, as both serve different purposes. Drivers can check their insurance status online via the AIDA platform, which provides information on RCA policies in Romania. Not having a physical document does not equate to lacking insurance, but driving without valid coverage incurs penalties.
