The cost of Abkhazian auto insurance (OSAGO) in 2026 depends on the validity period of the policy. Prices are fixed and the same whether purchased at the border or online. Here are the current rates for passenger cars:

Abkhazian auto insurance rates in 2026
Validity period Cost
15 days 1000 rubles
30 days 1500 rubles
3 months 2500 rubles
6 months 5000 rubles
1 year 8500 rubles

Insurance is issued for the car, not the driver. So if there are several of you, one policy per car is enough. You can buy it immediately after passing Abkhazian passport control at the Psou checkpoint — there are several kiosks open 24/7. Payment is accepted in cash (rubles) and cards, but it's better to have cash, as Russian Visa/Mastercard cards do not work, and Mir and UnionPay are not accepted everywhere.

Attention! At the Psou checkpoint, insurers often try to impose life insurance for all passengers along with the auto policy. This is a scam. Auto insurance is sold separately. If they insist, look for another office nearby or firmly say that you only need "auto liability insurance".
