I also have civil liability insurance in compliance with Spanish insurance regulations
DGSFP 23.9.08 (BOE 236 of 30.9.08) these amounts are updated regularly by the Spanish authorities.

Suma asegurada / sum insured	euros

Por anualidad / yearly	1.680.300

I don't have insurance for handling money as all payments are collected by the insurance companies I work with from the client's account and made by the insurance companies to the account (this is also applicable to the other insurance companies I work for). Insurance agents who collect premium payments (normally in cash) must have that insurance cover, but as I operate almost 100% through the internet I'm not interested in handling money...

In local publications or on the internet, I have seen UK / foreign-based agents, agencies or brokers offering insurance in Spain. How do I know if they are registered and authorised to do so by the Spanish authorities?
