If you do not use your vehicle for a certain period of time, you can decommission it from road use. You can decommission the vehicle on the service op.fi in the My Policies section by selecting “Make a notification” under the header Motor vehicle insurance. Alternatively, you can change the registration in the Finnish Transport and Communications Agency Traficom online service or at any vehicle inspection station that issues registrations. Changes in registration are subject to a fee stated in Traficom’s list of service charges and fees.
The registration changes will be updated automatically in your insurance policy data. During the time of decommissioning, your motor liability insurance will be charged only a minimum premium of 14 euros. If you also have comprehensive motor vehicle insurance, you will continue to be charged for covers that protect your vehicle also during decommissioning.
In order to receive the refunded premiums, please make sure your bank account number is up to date at all times. To view and change the bank account, go to the Insurance - Accounts page.
Certain Pohjola Insurance motor vehicle insurance policies are priced automatically, depending on the time of year. In these cases, seasonal rating of premiums is taken into account in the insurance bill. In seasonal rating, the premiums for motorcycle insurance are automatically higher during the spring and summer months, whilst premiums for snowmobile insurance are higher during the autumn and winter months, for example.
