Question

Answer 1

You can only take your car to Greece for a period of not longer than 6 months. Then you have to take the car back out of the country. (Need to get proof of entering and leaving). Upon arrival at your destination in Greece you are required to inform the local Port Authority (Teloneo) of the details of your car. Insurance is not able to be obtained in Greece unless you have registered your car in Greece and have obtained Greek number plates (VERY expensive) and only available if your car is under 3 years old. Insurance needs to be obtained here in the UK but as you have found is nearly if not totally impossible to find - (I didn't)! Good luck. As a previous answer stated, the system over there is horrendous, the driving worse and if you DO have an accident, you WILL as a non-national have problems if your papers are not in order. Only about half of the Greeks on the other hand have insurance! Good luck!!!

Answer 2

Your question is quite specialised, that is why you didn't receive many answers. I honestly don't know these details, or I'd answer you. What I can tell you is that the insurance companies in Greece are multinational companies, and unless you go to a fraud, all the companies with a good name work as anywhere else in the world and my experience from them is that they do pay according to their contract. As for alan d, he is a troll trying to accuse Greece at every possible instance, and this hatred is so organised that it reveals his intentions are far from innocent or personal. His own mention of secret services agents shows that this is what he is, or this is what he'd like to be anyway. None of us here ever thought of such a thing! We all try to help, but we don't always know info on so specific matters.

Answer 3

You have to go to the central office of the company or I suggest you to do something better...

Go to a KEP...Those are small offices in every area in athens and in the whole Greece, that are made to help the citizens with any proplem they have or any help they need...Just try the yellow pages or call the information services to tell you where you can find an office like that.

And I am sure that they will help you

And Allan...I am Greek....

Answer 4

My friend in Greece,like many others things (internet{90% of the conections are dial-up},animal rights{they poisoned tousands of dogs every year},emigrants rights{there are not such thing},minorities rights{they say 99,9 %in Greece live only greeks,a big lie}),the car insurance is nothing else than a big joke.Nothing work in this country.If you are unlucky to have any kind of insurance problem you will never get paid.They will lie to you and tell you``call us tomorow ´´for years.If you are real unlucky and you hit a greek rock,tree,sheep,car,man,they will trow you in jail till they ripp you off from everything you have.
Maybe you belive that i lie.You have this question...2-3 days now? I am the first to answer.Now wait and see how many greeks will atack me,and argue how wonderfull Greece is...They are all secret services employees,watching the net.
