Yes, you can drive outside of the Republic of Latvia in a leased car.
You do not need permission from us to drive in an EU country (including the Baltics).
To drive outside of the EU, you need our agreement and an authorisation. The fee for this is in our price list. Customers with KASKO insurance from CL Insurance Broker can receive this authorisation for free.
Terms for receiving authorisation:
- you must submit a valid KASKO policy which covers the countries whose borders you plan on crossing (if your KASKO policy does not cover these countries, you must take out a supplemental policy for the required period which includes the necessary countries);
- if you want to visit a CIS country, but your technical pass is still under our old name of SIA “Unicredit Leasing” or SIA “Citadele līzings un faktorings”, this must be changed to our current name (in this case, we will cover the cost of changing your CSDD technical pass);
- you must not have any late payments;
- you must submit a filled-in, signed Application for permission to drive out of the country.
Send the application and attachments necessary for us to prepare the authorisation by email to lizings@citadele.lv, and we will prepare it within two business days of receiving the documents.
WARNING!
Bearing in mind the instability in Ukraine and other countries, and the potential threats of warfare, we currently do not issue authorisation for driving to the following countries: Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Israel, even if these countries are included in your insurance coverage.
