Is Your Car On The MID

Arctic · 24th February 2011, 14:38

The Motor Insurance Database (MID)

All insurers must provide details of your motor insurance policy to the MID. It’s no longer enough just to be insured, all vehicles must be listed on the MID.
The role of the MID

Data from the MID is used by police to help combat uninsured driving. If your details haven’t been entered on the MID you may be stopped by the police. There’s a risk that your vehicle could be seized if the correct details haven’t been registered.

For private individuals it’s the responsibility of the insurance provider to get details of a policy or changes on MID within seven days of the effective date.

For company vehicles it’s the responsibility of the policy holder to ensure that their company vehicle details are provided for MID. To find out more about this please contact your insurance provider.

It’s the responsibility of your insurance company to ensure that the details of your policy are recorded on the MID. If askmid has no record of your motor insurance on the system you should contact your insures or broker immediately

All my vehicles are !
You'll soon find out when you try to Tax your vehicle online as if it's not on the MID database, it will inform you that your vehicle is uninsured.

I've been using this for quite a while now. It's especially handy if you have recently bought a car/bike....

Thanks anyway.

Mine is listed as being a 114... even though it is a 135 and the insurance company have amended it on my policy !!!

greendriver · 24th February 2011, 15:15

I use this a lot in my job.

Something to know, it doesn't cover trade policies everytime. It had me on it whenever my insurance was actually covering someone else thanks to a post office admin error.
