MTPL claims

If you have BTA MTPL policy, Green Card or Frontier Insurance contract and you have suffered losses because of another participant of the traffic, then to file the insurance claim you must contact the insurance company that has issued MTPL policy to the owner of the vehicle who has caused the traffic accident. If you have suffered losses in a traffic accident caused by a vehicle owner that has BTA MTPL policy, Green Card or Frontier Insurance contract, you can file the insurance claim in the way you prefer.
