Hoping for some help with this one. Does anybody know of any insurance companies that provide goods in transit insurance or similar to cover a small courier business in the Canaries that I'm looking into at the moment? No goods would be left in the vehicle overnight and the maximum amount of cover needed would be no more than 20.000 euros.

I've tried quite a few companies so far and they all say that they don't provide this kind of policy.

Many thanks,

GB

No, like I put in my original post I wouldn't be setting up or trying to set up as a taxi business. My query was what licences would I need to set up a small excursions business which would involve half / full day trips with stops along the way for photos, refreshments etc.

I'm considering setting up an excursions business in the Canaries taking people out of the main resorts to different parts and have a few queries that I hope somebody can help with. There are plenty of these businesses in operation but most are run by the larger coach companies and when I've been on them they feel a bit too controlled for my liking. I'd be using a 7 seater vehicle.

For the moment my main query is what licences would I need to operate, I know that the taxis need the SP licences but because I wouldn't be in direct competition with them what's needed for an excursions company (run as an autonomo). I've seen plenty of bike hire excursions and surfing excursions whereby clients are picked up and transported to other parts of the island and they don't have the SP licences on their minibuses so wondered what the criteria is?

I really hope that somebody can shed a bit of light on this for me and I'll be back with other queries along the way.
