Use of vehicle registered in Ukraine in the territory of Lithuania

I want to use vehicle registered in Ukraine in the territory of Lithuania. How should I do that properly and what is worth to know?

Compulsory motor third party liability insurance is mandatory in order to use a vehicle in Lithuania. Proper insurance documents are the ones where it is indicated that they are valid and provide insurance coverage in the territory of Lithuania (e.g. Ukrainian Green Cards, Polish or Lithuanian Frontier insurance policies). If you want to insure a vehicle that is registered in Ukraine you can do that remotely in these Ukrainian insurance companies or you should contact any insurer in Lithuania which provides compulsory motor third party liability insurance documents.

As all vehicles must be insured in Lithuania – it is prohibited to use a vehicle which has no compulsory motor third party liability insurance. Nevertheless, participating in the road traffic with an uninsured vehicle can cause administrative liability.
