Expert advice for buying
car insurance
Car insurance protects your vehicle against the odds while on road and we can help to understand which insurance fits your needs. Trust a broker with expertise and experience.
Here are the benefits of having car insurance:
- Protection from loss or damage to your vehicle
- Unlimited liability for third-party death or injury claims
- Indemnity for third-party property damage
- Protection from financial liability
Know the difference. Third-party liability insurance provides coverage for the death and injuries to a third person in the event of an accident. It also offers coverage for damage to another person’s property or public property. However, TPL insurance does not cover the expenses for damage to your own car.
Comprehensive car insurance will not only cover the damage mentioned above, but it will also cover the loss or damage to your own car too. Even though a comprehensive policy may be more expensive, it makes more sense to opt for it vs. a TPL policy, so that you do not have to pay from your own pocket for your car’s repair and replacement costs
Insurance companies in the UAE guarantee financial coverage for repairs needed as a result of car accidents. However, instead of paying the policyholder, insurance agencies will have the repairs done through a contracted automobile repair agency.
Agency repair cover is an add-on purchase to your regular car insurance policy and is ideal for all expensive four-wheeler owners. It guarantees that an authorized dealer of your vehicle will repair the car during the claim process. Keep in mind that repairs made at these agencies are more expensive than repairs done at a general garage. You would usually pay an additional amount to add agency repair coverage to your car insurance plan. Consider the age and value of your vehicle when deciding whether to opt for this coverage.
In Arabic, Takaful means ‘solidarity and cooperation among group of people’. Takaful insurance is a form of co-operative insurance in compliance with Islamic Shariah, which is based on the concept of shared contributions and mutual co-operation between the participants to compensate one another in case of loss.
Takaful insurance is essentially distinguished from conventional insurance by the fact that premiums are regarded as “contributions” to a mutual fund established with an agreement of mutual assistance and of solidarity among the members of a community in case of loss or damage suffered by one of the members. Takaful is, therefore, a mutual agreement to share the occurrence risk of an unfavourable event affecting a member of the group.
Yes, auto insurance will cover scratches. However, the scratches must be caused by a peril covered in your policy, like a car accident, collision or vandalism.
The rules of the road even apply to parking lots. If you file a claim following a minor accident that occurred in a parking lot and if you have collision coverage in your insurance policy, your auto insurer will handle it the same as any other type of claim: they will investigate, determine fault, and pay out damage accordingly. If you don’t have collision coverage, and you are at-fault for the accident, you may have to shell out money for any damage to your vehicle. Depending on your deductibles if it is meagre, it may not be worth filing a claim.
