What does this mean for you? From that day, anyone having an insurance policy from any EU state (+ Andorra, Croatia, Iceland, Norway, Switzerland) can travel to Serbia without needing the Green card itself. The national vehicle registration plate substitutes the green card. The same applies to Serbian drivers going to EU + above states.
Under the Multilateral agreement, insurers from the above countries MUST provide insurance to Serbia. It is no longer optional for the insurer to provide coverage for Serbia, but an obligation.
The insurance coverage for Serbia (identified as SRB) does not apply to the region of Kosovo/UMNIK (UN resolution 1244).
From January 1, 2012, Montenegro has become a member of the Green card system. It is identified as MNE. The green card policy with code SRB no longer applies to Montenegro. If traveling to Montenegro, you DO need the green card, and you MUST check with your insurer if they cover your trip to Montenegro or not.
