In the last post I explained the main insurances that you need if you live in Germany. Here are some other useful ones.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Haftpflichtversicherung<\/strong> &#8211; Liability Insurance<br \/>\nThis insurance covers you incase you break someone elses belongings. For example you ride your bike into someone elses car, the insurance will pay for the person&#8217;s car to get repaired. This insurance means you are insured not only in Germany, but worldwide. I recently got given a key from my work and they also said I should check that my Haftpflichtversicherung covers keys as well incase I lose it!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kfz Haftpflichtversicherung<\/strong> &#8211; Car Liability Insurance (Kfz is short for <strong>Kraftfahrzeug<\/strong>)<br \/>\nWhat anybody needs when they drive a car &#8211; car insurance. This insurance belongs to Autoversicherung which is of course <strong>pflicht<\/strong> (mandatory).<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_9898\" style=\"width: 360px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter post-item__attachment\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/tom-margie\/1260360156\/in\/photolist-2VnFaw-2eLsE-mB6azg-hi2Pen-8Zmczg-bA2rM6-4sT2p4-q7dS5o-81ZSUm-aKwkEM-aKx464-7QWBfb-4sWsi1-8bciHE-bA2S4T-aKx2XX-4nExWq-aKwdt6-4sSQEZ-4sSQHp-6FY1sJ-fELMp6-mB9tNH-81ZSMm-4sSNLT-4fcG2G-4d2r4f-4sShwc-rQ1weV-cL8ynE-aKwXzr-7QWJ9d-4sWGg1-7D62h9-7QWEiA-4sSRfi-81ZTeJ-7QTmWi-dVwUrB-9pYDXH-56tK8E-9pYy4n-dVCwsJ-9YGqvC-aKwx1v-cL8zVh-6fJLLa-7D1V4v-asXVQC-RLsZgP\" aria-label=\"1260360156 8c68e06ea4 Z 350x169\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9898\" class=\"wp-image-9898 size-medium\"  alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"169\" \/ src=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/german\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/05\/1260360156_8c68e06ea4_z-350x169.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/german\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/05\/1260360156_8c68e06ea4_z-350x169.jpg 350w, https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/german\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/05\/1260360156_8c68e06ea4_z.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-9898\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Autoversicherung.

Here you are insured incase something happens to you whilst on holiday outside of Germany. This pays for the doctor and the treatment, and can even pay for your journey home if you are heavily injured and need special requirements.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reiser\u00fccktrittversicherung<\/strong> &#8211; Travel Cancellation Insurance<br \/>\nThis comes in handy if you booked a holiday a few months in advance, but when the time comes you cannot go. This insurance pays all or some of the <strong>Stornogeb\u00fchren<\/strong> (cancellation fees).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Berufsunf\u00e4higkeitsversicherung<\/strong> &#8211; Occupational Disability Insurance<br \/>\nThis insurance is incase you become ill and can no longer work. This can be because of your health or for example if you had an accident. A Doctor will of course have to confirm that you are not able to work for at least three years and then the insurance will pay you.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Do you know any other interesting insurances?
