Towing a trailer or caravan:
For customers entering Republic of Ireland, there is no requirement for a separate Green Card for any trailers or caravans being towed.
However, customers who are entering some Green Card Free Circulation Area (GCFCA) countries there may be a requirement for a separate Green Card as proof of insurance for trailers or caravans. Green cards only give third party cover so there will be no cover for any damage to a caravan or trailer.
If you do require a separate Green Card for a trailer or caravan, please contact us on 0345 828 2822 and we will arrange for same, you will need to provide the following information:
- Chassis Number
- Make and Model
Customers with renewals due in January 2021 will have received a second Green Card. This card can be used providing you renew your van policy with AXA and this policy remains active and any payments due are up to date.
