## Required Documents

### Green Card Insurance: Activation Time

**CRITICAL: Green Card Activation Timing**

Green Card is mandatory vehicle insurance for all cars. Important to know:

**When does it become active?**
Insurance purchased TODAY will only become active TOMORROW at 00:00.

**This rule applies to all types of purchase:**

- Online purchase (active tomorrow)
- Insurance company office (active tomorrow)
- Kiosk near the border (active tomorrow)

**What to do?**

- Buy Green Card 1-2 days before your trip online
- Use your existing policy (if not expired)
- NOT recommended: buying at border kiosk (too late)

**This is not a technical error — it's an EU insurance law.**
Plan one day ahead! Without valid Green Card you cannot cross the border.
