Overland Truck vehicle Insurance , Central Asia
I am often asked what you do for insurance when overlanding. It maybe you will find an insurance provider that will cover all countries but it will be very expensive due to the perceived risk. In this video I will talk about how to get local insurance and my experience in different countries.
I also discuss Annual test ( MOT ) and road tax.

Thanks for sharing you experiences!
Hello I’m new here great video and great information thank you for sharing take care now
Hi Matt, you didn’t mention a carnet de passage, is that no longer relevant?
Sorry cannot see the details of the insurance fixer.
good info there Matt, now where's that beautiful wife of yours?
Hi Matt, slightly off topic of this… Looking at the DAF’s as i’ve mentioned before for work with a crane. Now towing trailers. Would be really useful for our Plant. Seems army state tow capacity at 5500kg. Question – Is this due to army having NATO hitch, did you get any info with truck or know from your experiences if you fitted an uprated HGV trailer coupling could you tow heavier? Cheers, enjoying the videos, seems you have started a bit of a theme as lots of others buying these now & videoing their builds! Never used to be anything on here on the DAF’s. Sorry, another question, roughly what weight would you be happy putting on your roofrack? You keep about 200kg up here…think a quad would go if I had the crane to get it up there?
You talk a lot about "insurance" I assume you mean 3rd party insurance – many viewers will be assuming you mean full insurance – ie fully comprehensive insurance – huge difference! Any perspectives on the possibilities to get fully comprehensive insurance coverage beyond Europe??? I know one company in UK who used to offer it (Cambell Irvine) but they don't any longer – do you know somebody who does offer it?
Love the truck..I’m just converting a Mercedes vario and have found your electric system video helpful so thanks 👍🏻 out of interest what’s the interior dimensions of your box?

Hi Matthew, this insurance business is a minefield. Thanks for sharing, very informative.
Hear in the USA it is VERY hard for anyone to get insurance on a motor vehicle that is not registered in the USA. be prepared it could take up to a year to locate insurance. at this time i don`t know any company that will insure you.
Really useful for the budget calculator, thanks Matt.
So in Kyrgyzstan it is not required. But what if you hit someone?
Allot of countries do not require insurance.
Uk insurance requires evidence of MOT and road tax. It’s ok if you insure and go for a year but if you are away for more than a year and try to renew doesn’t the insurance Co ask for proof of road tax n MOT? Also what about insurance for your belongings ?
Very informative and useful video!
