An insurance agency service brand for foreign-plated vehicle applications
Gurbet Kasko is the service brand of Özhedef Sigorta Aracılık Hizmetleri Limited Şirketi , used to give information about insurance products for owners of foreign-plated vehicles and to handle requests, quotes and policy processes on their behalf.
If you are coming to Türkiye (Turkey) with a foreign-plated vehicle, you can use Gurbet Kasko to ask about compulsory traffic insurance, extended liability cover, Kasko and roadside assistance, and to start a quote.
Compulsory traffic insurance covers damage you may cause to other people, within the terms of the policy. Kasko, on the other hand, can cover damage to your own vehicle — subject to the acceptance criteria, scope of cover and special terms of the insurer that issues the policy.
What you can apply for
If your vehicle has foreign plates, you can find out about the products below and ask us to start a quote with the insurers.
Compulsory traffic insurance
The compulsory cover for damage you may cause to third parties, within the terms of the policy. You can start a request here.
Extended liability
Extended liability cover raises the limit for damage to third parties above the compulsory one. We can explain it and take your request to the insurers.
Kasko
Cover for your own vehicle. It is assessed according to the insurer’s acceptance criteria, your vehicle details, the scope of cover and the policy terms.
Roadside assistance
Breakdown and towing help, provided within the scope, limits and terms of the policy or service package you buy.

How a request works
We pass your request to the insurers, with the information and documents you send us. Whether a policy is issued depends on the insurer’s acceptance criteria, the product terms and the applicable rules.
Send us your details
Filling in the form completely and correctly is what keeps the quote and the policy moving without hold-ups.
Getting your quote
If your documents are complete and the insurer’s systems are available, a compulsory traffic insurance request can be finished quickly. A Kasko quote can take up to one working day.
Your policy document
If a policy is issued, we send it to you digitally as a PDF. You can print it out and keep it with you on the road.

Assistance, claims and payment
When there is a breakdown, an accident, a claim or a payment to sort out, we tell you plainly where you stand and where to turn. Our job is to make the insurance side easy for guests arriving in Türkiye with a foreign-plated vehicle: clear information about the products they need, and their quote and policy handled for them.
Breakdown and towing
After a breakdown or an accident, roadside help and towing can be provided within the scope, limits and terms of the policy or service package you bought.
Claims and assistance
If you have an accident, a breakdown or damage in Türkiye, we help you through the claims and assistance process of the insurer that issued your policy.

We can send you a payment link. You can pay with your own credit card, or transfer the amount (EFT, FAST or bank transfer) to the Turkish lira account of Özhedef Sigorta Aracılık Hizmetleri Limited Şirketi at Türkiye İş Bankası.

About the products and the cover
The scope, duration, limits, premium and special terms of compulsory traffic insurance, extended liability cover, Kasko and roadside assistance are set by the quote and policy terms of the insurer concerned.
Sending a request does not mean a policy will be issued in every case. Requests are taken so that the insurers can assess them.
At busy times of year, insurance at the border crossings can take a while. If you send your request before you set off, the quote and the policy can be sorted out in advance.
Safe travels — we wish you a trouble-free journey.
