Quick question :-)

[sinner]

Hi guys, just heading towards marocco and I have a question

I will need to get insurance at the border but my own Insurance is up for renewal two days after I arrive in Morocco, am I right in thinking I don’t need to renew and just renew when I’m about to leave Morocco ?

You say Marocco, I say Morroco, Marocco, Morroco, lets get the spelling right.

Anyhoooooooooo, and I may not be correct, I cant see you requiring EU/UK insurance until you land back to EU land?

Edit, unless something happens Alan, I would think it would be easier making a hypothetical claim with your UK insurer than a Maroc insurer.

I remember a friend of mine talking about a Green Card issued by his home insurer to cover him in Morocco Alan.

I have no idea how that works though.

You may well be right, but it may be worth checking with your insurance company to see if they can get cover for Morocco.

FWIW, my insurance covered Morocco, saved faffing around over there and was fully comp cover too, bonus.

I would talk to your insurer who might be able to issue you a green card to maintain fl cover as I believe (?) Border cover may only be third party. Also be aware that your UK renewal invitation may lapse if not taken up within a certain time. That might cause you problems on returning to uk.

Already spoke to insurance no cover for Morocco but I am going to look about see if I can get cover from another

Would be no point in claim uk insurance as I won’t be covered in Morocco :-( and the border insurance is only 3rd party

Shemagh is the only insurance you will require while in Moroc Alan. I would have let you borrow my one, to late now though, as your on the road.

It’s been awhile but I used to use AXA, but also used to have to buy a worthless piece of paper in Tangiers from a local “official”

There used to be a company in Tarifa that sold insurance for Morocco, but I’m going back some years and tbh I was always sceptical.

You MAY have to state that your vehicle is in UK for the start of the insurance period: I certainly had to do that 15y ago. They did allow me to extend the cover for two weeks to allow me to drive from Marbella

If the border insurance is 3rd party only then you wouldn't be covered for damage /fir /theft of your bike.
If you renew your UK insurance but don't include Morocco, you still wouldn't be covered.

Best to renew your UK cover and include Morocco.
