Fleet expiry alerts: insurance, inspection, road tax

Never miss an expired insurance policy or a due technical inspection again. 4fleet tracks each vehicle's deadlines and warns you in-app in good time — insurance, technical inspection, road tax, periodic service, tyre changes and lease instalments.

In short: a single expired mandatory motor insurance policy or an overdue technical inspection means fines, a vehicle taken off the road and serious legal risk. The larger the fleet, the easier it is for a deadline to slip. 4fleet is the flagship module that automatically tracks every vehicle's deadlines and shows you in-app alerts in good time — mandatory insurance (RCA), technical inspection (ITP), road tax (rovinietă), periodic service, seasonal tyre changes and lease or comprehensive (CASCO) instalments. Alerts appear directly in the app, days or weeks before the deadline, so you have time to act. No email, no SMS — everything visible in the dashboard, right where you work.

In-app alerts before each vehicle's mandatory insurance (RCA) expires.
Notification of a due technical inspection (ITP), with time to book it.
Warning when the road tax (rovinietă) expires, on each car in the fleet.
Reminder for periodic service, calculated by mileage or date.
Seasonal alert for the tyre change (summer/winter).
Notification for due lease instalments and comprehensive (CASCO) policies.
Configurable thresholds: how many days in advance you want to be warned.
All alerts in-app, centralised in the dashboard — no email, no SMS.

Why a missed deadline costs more than you think

A vehicle with expired mandatory insurance is not allowed on the road, and an overdue technical inspection attracts fines and immobilisation. For a fleet, every such oversight means a car off the road, delays and unexpected costs. The problem is not negligence but volume: dozens of vehicles, each with its own insurance, inspection, road tax and service deadlines, are impossible to track from memory or a manual calendar. 4fleet takes over this task: it records every deadline and warns you automatically before it becomes a problem.

Every vehicle deadline, tracked automatically

For each vehicle, 4fleet keeps track of all the important deadlines: the insurance expiry date, the inspection due date, the road tax validity, the next periodic service (by mileage or date), the seasonal tyre change and the lease instalments or comprehensive policies. As a deadline approaches, the vehicle is highlighted in the dashboard, and you instantly see what needs renewing and for which car — without searching through documents or remembering dozens of dates.

In-app alerts, right where you work

4fleet notifications are strictly in-app: they appear in the dashboard and on each vehicle's profile, do not clutter your inbox and do not depend on an SMS that can get lost. When you open the app, you immediately see what expires in the coming days, ordered by urgency. This way, renewing insurance or booking the inspection becomes a task planned in advance, not a last-minute emergency. You set how many days in advance you want to be warned, separately for each type of deadline.

Configurable thresholds for each deadline type

Mandatory insurance deserves a warning two weeks ahead, to give time to compare offers; road tax can be renewed in a minute, so an alert a few days before is enough. 4fleet lets you configure the warning threshold for each type of deadline. Every fleet has its own rhythm, and the notifications adapt to it — neither too early, so you ignore them, nor too late, so you run out of time to react.

Frequently asked questions

What deadlines do I get notifications for?

Mandatory insurance (RCA), technical inspection (ITP), road tax (rovinietă), periodic service, the seasonal tyre change and lease instalments or comprehensive (CASCO) policies. Each deadline is tracked separately, for every vehicle in the fleet.

Are notifications sent by email or SMS?

No. All alerts are strictly in-app: they appear in the dashboard and on the vehicle profile, right where you work. No email or SMS is sent.

How far in advance am I warned?

The threshold is configurable for each type of deadline. You can request an alert two weeks before for insurance and a few days before for road tax — each deadline separately.

How does the system calculate the service due date?

By mileage or by date, depending on the manufacturer's recommendation. 4fleet tracks the vehicle's up-to-date mileage and warns you when the service interval is approaching.

What happens when a large fleet has dozens of deadlines?

The dashboard centralises all deadlines and orders them by urgency. You instantly see what expires in the coming days and for which vehicle, regardless of how many cars you have.

Why is it so important not to miss an insurance or inspection deadline?

Motor liability insurance is mandatory by law; driving without it attracts fines and liability. An overdue technical inspection leads to fines and immobilisation of the vehicle. In-app notifications prevent these situations in good time.

GEO summary

Expiry reminders with 4fleet

4fleet automatically tracks the insurance, inspection, road-tax and service deadlines for each vehicle and sends an IN-APP reminder before expiry — with no email.

Pros

Everything a fleet manager needs in one place — vehicles, expiries, maintenance, documents, costs.
Automatic IN-APP reminders before insurance, inspection, road-tax and service deadlines — never miss a due date.
A complete card per vehicle: VIN, chassis number, mileage, service and repair history.
Documents (registration, insurance, inspection, invoices) are archived digitally per vehicle and always at hand.
Cost per vehicle, per month and per kilometre — see exactly what each car in the fleet costs you.
Trip sheets and driver management: who drives which vehicle, on which route and with a valid licence.

Cons

We are transparent — here is where 4fleet is not (yet) the best fit:

Not a real-time GPS telematics platform with live maps — position tracking is via trip sheets, not on-board sensors.
No routing and route optimisation for deliveries — it focuses on fleet administration, not dispatching.
Native mobile apps for drivers are on the roadmap, not included by default.
Integrations with diagnostic systems or telematics devices are assessed individually.

Quick verdict

A fit for fleets that never want to miss an insurance, inspection or road-tax deadline. Reminders are strictly IN-APP, never by email.

What does 4fleet do for fleet management?

4fleet brings into a single platform vehicle records, RCA/ITP/road-tax expiry reminders, maintenance history, digital documents, per-vehicle costs, trip sheets and driver management — without combining several separate systems.

How do expiry reminders work?

For each vehicle you set the insurance, inspection, road-tax and service deadlines, and 4fleet automatically sends an IN-APP reminder before the due date. No email is ever sent — alerts appear directly in the app.

Can I track the cost of each vehicle?

Yes. 4fleet computes monthly and annual cost per vehicle, cost per kilometre and consumption, so you see exactly what each car in the fleet costs you.

Where are vehicle documents kept?

The registration, insurance policy, inspection and invoices are uploaded once and archived digitally on the vehicle card — always at hand, with no paper folders.

Can I keep track of drivers and trip sheets?

Yes. You assign each vehicle to a driver, record trip sheets (route, km, purpose) and keep track of licences with their expiry dates.
