As per the bike insurance, most euopean insurances eill provide you with a green card covering most of Europe - Knopf will be able to assist. For all other countries you typically buy when you enter.

Medical and Evacuation insurance for Europeans with global coverage is no problem if you don’t stay for several months as you seem to plan. Often they are called just travel insurance. There must be similar in the US.

Take care

OP, your questions are pretty basic, and all of us have asked the same questions. That means they've also been answered many times on this forum and others. There's a certain reluctance to invest a lot of time in answering inquiries in the absence of indications someone's first done a bit of research on their own.

In the end, trusting answers you get here (or again, elsewhere) without verifying them independently will get you into trouble anyway. Times change, procedures change, even governments change drastically--c.f., two of your destinations, Abkhazia and Crimea. Plus: we respondents make mistakes...or at least, I do.

The search box on this site gets routinely disrespected, but it actually works fairly well. Insert any obvious search terms and you'll start collecting answers--"green card insurance," "travel insurance for Americans," or "insure motorcycle in Russia."

At any moment not subject to COVID precautions there are probably thousands of US citizens riding motorcycles around Europe and Asia, and sometimes it seems like they're all blogging constantly. Some are quite obsessive about describing where they bought insurance and which border crossings are easiest/fastest/cheapest/most scenic/most fun. Read a few blogs, and take notes.

Last, when asking questions it's usually more productive to be very specific rather than general or scattershot. "Where can I buy insurance in the following 20 countries?" is usually less productive than "Can I buy insurance entering Turkey from Bulgaria?"

Hope that's helpful.

PS: Travel insurance from DAN covers US citizens cheaply and comprehensively. Read the fine print.

Thanks for all great respectful feedback. I'm still in the early stages of planning this trip and I guess it seemed easier to throw out the question to a large audience regarding which countries may not provide any insurance along this route as opposed to asking about or researching each of many different countries when most of them will provide coverage. Obviously I would do this if I didn't get a response. Basically I want to make sure that there are no countries that would be show stoppers and preclude me from completing this trip - insurance wise.

These include China - which sounds prohibitively difficult to bring a vehicle into. Also looks like you cannot drive from Russia into Crimea if you are not Ukrainian - so would probably take the route through Turkey.

Thanks again!

Just noting that your original post said nothing about entering Crimea from Russia.

When you say "...it seemed easier to throw out the question to a large audience..." you're not taking into account the simple fact that there are far more people "throwing out the question" than there are experienced folks willing to answer at length. Add to this the less obvious fact that most of these trips don't ever happen per the early questions and vague plans, and that a great many questioners never even bother checking back to thank those who respond or contribute to the knowledge base which contributed to their trips.

I sound needlessly dour today, which isn't my intent. I'm just hoping to be informative about how this is most likely going to work best for you (and those who follow).

best,

Mark
