I am currently a US citizen but I was born in Poland. Poland is now part of EU. I researched recently some alternatives to insuring my US registered bike in Germany and was able to find the following: I can buy a so called "border-insurance" in Poland for 170 Polish Zloty, which is about 42 Euros per month. This isurance is only a 3rd party liability (w/o option to add anything else). It covers me in all the EU countries. It can be purchased for multiples of the 30day period, but it has to be for minimum 30 days. I don't think one has to be Polish in order to obtain it.

That might be a useful option for some folks in some circumstances.
But...can you share more detail/ info on exactly where and how one might obtain this Polish-originating "border-insurance" (that means the same thing as Euro Green Card) coverage?
E.g., is there a website of an agency or broker in Poland where anyone can request/ order this coverage in advance of going to Europe for/ with a US-registered bike?
Or, must someone go physically to a particular agency location/ address in Poland to obtain this coverage?
If not a website, do you have name of agency, address, tel, fax in Poland; name of English-speaking staff person at this agency?
Thanks
