syria and the carnet
hi there, me and my mate a planning a trip down to Syria though I'm abit worried about the Carnet de Passage. As I understand it has to be underwritten in some way, either personally or through an insurer so that the cost of the bike is covered and not 'dumped' in the respective country, a customs charge paid in advance.
I certainly can't take out a loan nor do I have a spare few grand to sort it. I have never come across such an insurance policy before; does such a short term or extensive insurance policy exist? would it underwrite a carnet? Or is it possible to pay the customs fee at the border? have I got it all wrong?
cheers simon
