For some reason noone post these things so here I go:

Green card insurance for europe can be obtained from Knopf tours and ADAC fx. BUT both get it from ARISA assurances which is a swiz or something.

Here is the mail I got from them:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yep, I wish I'd known that before I paid Knopf Tours €330 for the same bloody thing...

I did query it with them once I got my paperwork and saw my six month cover actually only cost €132.00... but I'd already paid (by bank transfer) and the paperwork was sent out...

€200.00 extra is quite frankly obscene for 'administration costs'...

Bastards...

Hey ho.

Could an admin or moderator make this a sticky, otherwise this valuable info is just going to get lost on this forum

Thanks.

Yes, if Peter actually gets his Green Card by email I think this is the answer to many a FAQ.

Peter,
I'm currently waiting for mine to be posted (as soon as my bank transfer clears) and have also requested a scan by e-mail (instead of a fax). I'll let you know if Mr Terrao is happy to do that.
Stephan

can this insurance only be bought in Germany or can you get it in other european countries. We are driving overland from Asia entering europe trough Turkey, or can you get insurance that covers all countries?

You can buy the insurance over the internet, with the help of:

1. Internetbanking or a transfer from a physical bank in the country where you are

2. Email and a scanner

The insurance will arrive by snail-mail to an address of your choosing, BUT they will also send you a scan of the insurance to your email ON REQUEST.

The insurance COVERS ALL COUNTRIES WITHIN THE EU for LIMITED LIABILITY INSURANCE ONLY.

Thanks, Peter. I much appreciate your taking the time to respond (repeatedly), and I am about to do as you did—scans, wire transfer and all.

Safe journeys!

Mark

You are very welcome Mark, it is my pleasure to help others as I have been helped myself on this forum.

Happy riding.

Peter

G'day! Icame through Turkey last week. I entered Bulgaria at the main highway crossing point. There are 4 checkpoints. Between the 2nd and 3rd, on the left, is an office building that kind of says it's like a auto authority (or sumthin like that),. If you go to the window you will find a Very nice young lady, who will gladly sell you 3rd party insurance, for I think about 25 Euro, that covers you for all EU countries. Or so it says, no one has asked for it since........
I hope, if you do go that way, that they got the computer in the 4th point fixed. Cause I wouldn't wish the 5hr wait I had in 36 deg heat on anyone... Good Luck, Bootlace.

hey guys
I have emailed these guys trying to obtain details on a green card policy but have not got a reply in about 5 days. Has anyone else been in contact with them in the last little while and had any luck???

Cheers

I too have sent them an email early last week.

I've had no response either

Anyone out there had better luck recently?

John

Try to send the email to their main email which is info@arisa.lu

But that said I emailed one of their staff a couple of weeks ago and havent gotten a reply yet.

I think that it may have to do with the holliday season.

Perhaps call them?
