Third party liability

This is a mandatory cover, by law. It means that we will pay for property damage done to other cars or objects and body injuries caused to other people, as long as you are responsible for these incidents. The limit of cover is set by law (€1,300,000 from January 2022).

Damages from uninsured vehicle

We cover damage (up to €15,000 or the amount stated in your policy as the insured capital if it's smaller than €15,000) caused to your van or truck by an uninsured vehicle. For this to happen, the driver must have accepted liability or their liability must be proven by public documents such as a copy of the accident book of the traffic police.It must also be confirmed by the information centre of the subsidiary fund that the vehicle was indeed uninsured when the accident occurred.

What is a waiver?

A waiver is the amount you pay in case of a covered damage. Let’s say repairing “Natural phenomena” damage costs €600. You’d pay the €300 waiver - which is the amount for this particular coverage - and we cover the rest. Not all coverages have waivers, but where they do, they may be fixed or fluctuate. Adjusting your waiver affects your premium, with lower waivers leading to higher premiums. If the damage doesn’t exceed the waiver, coverage isn’t activated. Plus, if you use one of our partner garages, you’ll get a 50% discount on waivers for coverages like natural phenomena, partial theft, malicious acts, and own damages.

Why can’t I add crystal breakage?

If the cost of crystal breakage exceeds our set limit, adding it would significantly raise your policy cost. However, if eligible, our “Own damages” program includes this coverage.
