What about Polish discounts?
Honoring Polish discounts is at the discretion of the insurer. There is no legal requirement for an insurance company to recognize the discounts a driver has earned in Poland.
Factors affecting the price
As in Poland, the main factor determining the amount of the insurance premium is accident-free driving. For each year without any collisions, the rate is reduced by 10 percent, and when the driver causes damage - he loses a 30 percent discount. During a telephone interview with an insurance advisor, the question will also be asked about how many kilometers a driver covers in a year. The more there are, the higher the risk of an accident, and thus the higher the premium. The place of residence also affects the price - for example, insurance in Oslo is higher than in any smaller town. It does not matter where the driver comes from. The Pole will get the same offer as the Norwegian.
