Temporary Car Insurance UK

Temporary Car Insurance for British Expats and International Drivers Visiting Friends and Family

All British expats and international drivers return to the UK, often to visit family and friends. When you’re back, do you have your own car or do you borrow one from a friend or family member? If you have your own car in the UK, you can save money by having a specific insurance policy for expats ready for when you arrive.

However, if you don’t have your own car, you’ll need to arrange car insurance to use another driver’s vehicle. Temporary car insurance will allow you to get covered without becoming a named driver on the owner’s policy, which often increases their premium.

At Keith Michaels, we can provide temporary cover for your visitors when visiting the UK. Cover can only be from 7 to 28 days and is subject to meeting our underwriting criteria. Cover can be extended to a maximum of 3 separate consecutive 28-day periods.

Please note that this type of cover is difficult to arrange due to the limited number of UK insurers available to provide indemnity.

Temporary Car Insurance for British Expats – Short Term Insurance for Imported Cars

When returning to the UK, some expats bring back a foreign vehicle. If you intend on doing this, you’ll benefit from arranging specific expat insurance for when you return.

However, you may need temporary cover before you can register your vehicle and arrange an annual policy.

Short Term Hired or Borrowed Cars

Whether you’re borrowing a friend’s car, going for a test drive or hiring a car, you need the best temporary cover.

When it comes to hiring a car, most people buy the car insurance that they are offered by the car hire company. However, you’re not most people. You are smart enough to arrange stand-alone temporary car insurance with us. By doing so, you save money and have a more tailored and flexible insurance policy.

Short Term Car Insurance for 17-Year-Olds and Learner Drivers

When your children are first learning to drive, it’s only natural to be cautious and worried. You can teach them in your own car by obtaining learner driver car insurance. It’s possible to arrange this on a temporary or long-term basis.

Best of all, your no claims bonus will not be at risk in the event of an accident.

If you’re learning to drive and intend on using your own vehicle or your parents’ one, then you’ll need to be properly insured. We offer temporary insurance for drivers with a provisional licence that will cover you for up to 90 days on a private vehicle.
