In Australia, all registered vehicles must have compulsory third-party insurance. Here is why you need truck green slip insurance

What is Green Slip Insurance?CTP truck green slip insurance

Truck Green Slip Insurance, also known as CTP (compulsory third party) or MAI (motor accident injuries) insurance, is a mandatory insurance policy for all registered vehicles that provides cover for third-party personal injury or death due to an accident where you or the driver of your vehicles is at fault. In some situations, CTP may cover you no matter who was at fault. CTP does not cover you for damage to your vehicle and other vehicles & property.

Additional policies, such as comprehensive motor vehicle insurance, will cover theft and damage to your vehicle and other vehicles.

CTP schemes are state-regulated. Some states issue CTP insurance automatically with rego, whereas if your vehicle is registered in NSW your CTP insurance must be issued by an NSW CTP insurer. You can find more detailed information about the CTP insurance scheme on the State Insurance Regulatory Authority (SIRA) website.
