Hi guys.
The process of buying a bike in The UK and Ireland is very basic.
All you need is an address.
I have been buying bike on behalf of riders all over the world for the past 5 years in Ireland.
The issue is insurance. Local insurers will not insure non residents without an valid EU license.
Some of my clients have been buying online insurance by basically ticking all the boxes they need to tick in order to get basic coverage and in many instances, the breakdown coverage they offer works very well.
Under EU law, everyone is entitled to buy insurance no matter where you come from but, the insurers are fussy.
Here's how you can legally get a quote from Irish insurers.
3 letters of refusal and make sure the date/time is noted clearly of the inquiry
Details why no quotation
Send detail to
declined@insuranceireland.eu
Also, send whatever documentation you have, rider training, copy of licence, current insurance policy's etc.
Lobagola B&B | design bed & breakfast in the center of Zagreb in Croatia seems to be after finding a way to insure foreign riders on EU bikes and offers a very professional service.
