Tira Insurance Check

TIRA Insurance refers to the vehicle insurance information registered and verified through the Tanzania Insurance Regulatory Authority (TIRA) using its Motor Insurance Information System (MIIS). It is a digital platform that allows Tanzanian vehicle owners, insurers, and law enforcement agencies to confirm the authenticity, validity, and status of motor insurance policies in real time. TIRA Insurance helps reduce fraud, ensures compliance with national insurance regulations, and makes it easier for drivers to check whether their vehicle is properly insured, the insurer providing the cover, and the policy’s expiry date. This system ensures safer roads and transparent insurance services across Tanzania.
