  • Do I need motor vehicle insurance in the BVI?
    Yes. All motor vehicles driven on BVI roads are legally required to carry at minimum third party motor vehicle insurance. Driving without insurance is a legal offence in the British Virgin Islands.
  • What is the difference between third party and comprehensive insurance?
    Third party covers your liability to other people and their property — it does not cover damage to your own vehicle. Comprehensive covers both third party liability and damage to your own vehicle, including theft and fire.
