Car insurance while full-time student in EU country

Hello,

Ignoring brexit for now, I wondered if anyone knows what to do regarding insurance if taking my car to another EU country as a full-time student?

EU law is quite clear that the car does not have to be re-registered if taken abroad by a student for the duration of their studies.

Insurance seems less clear. Anyone any ideas, or even better, experience of doing this?

Many thanks

    Insurance Brokers Stuart Collins & Co appear to offer what you are looking for. Annual UK Car Insurance for a UK registered car to be used within the EU.
    The comments I post are personal opinion. Always refer to official information sources before relying on internet forums. If you have a problem with any organisation, enter into their official complaints process at the earliest opportunity, as sometimes complaints have to be started within a certain time frame.

    Thank you for the reply, I should have clarified that the car is actually registered abroad and coming into the UK but I've since found a company operating in my current country that will offer what I need.
