In the mobile app Gosuslugi. Auto there is potential to verify the electronic OSAGO policy. Mikhail Chernikov, who leads the State Traffic Inspectorate, has proposed advancing this initiative within the current year.
Chernikov recently urged the continuation of efforts to enhance and deploy information technologies in the work of the State Traffic Inspectorate, including plans to add the ability to check the electronic OSAGO policy in the Gosuslugi. Auto application, according to the traffic police press service.
In January, the Gosuslugi.Avto app enabled drivers to present both their driver’s license and vehicle registration electronically to a traffic police officer.
The policy context in which these digital checks operate continues to evolve, with authorities emphasizing seamless digital services for drivers and authorities alike. This shift aligns with broader goals to streamline paperwork, improve verification speed, and reduce on-site contact, while maintaining robust security and privacy protections.
As digital identity and vehicle documentation become more intertwined with everyday road administration, users in Russia and neighboring regions are observing a growing trend toward electronic proof of documents. The ongoing development includes expanding compatible document formats, smart verification workflows, and improved data integration across government services to support mobile convenience and operational efficiency.
Ongoing pilots and policy discussions indicate a clear trajectory: greater reliance on mobile and online solutions for licensing, vehicle registration, and insurance verification, with careful attention to data integrity and user privacy. This evolution reflects a broader modernization effort aimed at making road administration faster, safer, and more accessible for all drivers.
