CASCO Insurance – Complete Protection for Your Vehicle in the Republic of Moldova

Whether you own a personal car or manage a fleet of cars, CASCO insurance provides you with the necessary security against unforeseen events. In the Republic of Moldova, CASCO is an optional insurance that covers damage to your own vehicle, regardless of fault.

What is CASCO insurance?

CASCO insurance is an optional policy that protects your vehicle against a wide range of risks, including accidents, theft and natural disasters. Unlike RCA, which only covers damage caused to third parties, CASCO protects your personal investment.

  • theft: total or partial theft of the vehicle;
  • acts of vandalism: damage intentionally caused by third parties;
  • natural disasters: fires, explosions, natural phenomena such as storms, hail, floods;
  • animal damage: damage caused by collisions with animals or other external causes;

Advantages of CASCO insurance:

extended coverage: protection both on the territory of the Republic of Moldova and in other countries, depending on the terms of the policy;

customization: the ability to choose the desired level of protection and add additional clauses, such as insurance of additional equipment or passengers;

repairs in authorized services: ensuring the quality and safety of the repairs performed.
