Getting insurance for a motorbike in Germany

score:5

Accepted answer

There is a specific kind of registration (and insurance) in Germany for vehicles that will leave the country soon; you get a specific registration tag ('Zollkennzeichen'), with the last date allowed in the country on it.

Basically, you buy normal insurance (like everyone in Germany would need), for pretty much the normal price, and it ends the day you want to leave (tip: give yourself some extra days), and you get a registration for that period. All insurances should offer that.

I recommend calling any big German insurance; they will speak English on the phone. Explain them that you want insurance form the day you buy until the day you leave the country, and they will work with you and the dealer.

You can also try to start with ordering the export plates directly (see for example http://www.export-plate.com/); I did not read the whole text, but it works with international insurance that you bring as well as with German insurances.
