Is it necessary to change the name with insurance company, when you buy a used car?

Mr. KHAN is 100 % correct. I never changed the insurance when I buy/sell car in Qatar.It is not required and the traffic department is not at all bothered while you change the car ownership.

But if you want to change to your name it is possible. But why to waste money. There is no value addition with that step. Help with that money you save to feed the poor and do good to your parents. Dont follow false advise

These crazy people are confusing things.

Change of name with the Insurance company is not Required...

I say again not Required...not Required...not Required...not Required...

Qatar Traffic law protects the Driver and passengers and the Vehicles (third party-Other vehicle + + Full-your vehicle and Other Vehicle) .

I have confirmed with a friend who owns more than 10 Vehicles. I know this law before.

When going to change Istemara.

They are explaining based on the Law in their home country. These are theory people. Dont follow.

Be practical.

The insurance protects the driver (Provided he has License) not the Owner.

Hope you understand.

If you are buying the car, transfer of insurance to your name is a mandatory requirement. The istinara will not be transferred to your name without change of name in the insurance cover.

What if you used the car without changing the insurance to your name? What will happen?

The insurance cover must be changed to your name. You may continue with the same insurance company if you wish to.
