Polish Insurance - validity?

theguzman

I was told I can buy Polish insurance valid for a month?

I have a car belonging to my elderly mother which has an expired NCT, needs some minor repairs to pass its NCT and has expired motor tax and no insurance but I want to get it repaired and sold. The car is worth about €2,000 and I need to drive it to the mechanic 60kms away, after to the NCT Centre and then possibly a few test drives with prospective buyers. Basically I wonder will the polish insurance be valid in Ireland (EU) to the purposes of avoiding any garda trouble should I meet any during what is probably 200 to 300kms of driving required to make the car road legal again. The car is declared off the road and I want to tax it for 3 months, get it repaired, valeted, NCT'd and sold. Alternatively what Insurance companies will give an annual policy payable monthly and then cancel as soon as car is sold?

The car doesn’t need to be taxed if your driving it to or from a booked NCT or NCT retest or NCT repairs, as long as its officially declared off the road.

All insurance companies provide monthly insurance.

You have to have an address in country you are taking out insurance in

If you stop paying a policy, which is under direct debit, that's not the end of the matter. Insurers have to go through the formal cancellation process and that is something you have to declare to insurers going forward. If you contact the insurer requesting a cancellation of the policy, you will be subject to short period rates, which often amount to the bulk of the annual premium
