| Living or Working Overseas?
Travelling abroad or living abroad
can cause headaches when trying to arrange suitable
insurance cover, many of the UK’s largest insurers
will not insure their customers if they are abroad for
long periods. Protecting your vehicle while living in
a foreign country is important, understanding all the
terms and conditions prior to travelling will prepare
you should the worst happen.
When taking out your insurance policy
it is important to check the country in which you are
residing, loss/damage policies do not include third
party liability insurance, as this needs to be arranged
locally to comply with the laws and regulations of the
country where the vehicle is being used.
For short visits to the EU, check with
your UK insurer as you can probably arrange additional
third party liability insurance cover or this can also
be arranged via us if you are abroad for longer periods.
For advice on travelling to each country
ensure that you comply with any special local legal
requirements by visiting the Foreign Office for advice
before you travel.

Accidental damage, fire and theft risks
