Frequently asked questions
General
- I am not a Singapore citizen or Permanent Resident. Can I purchase InsureDrive?
Yes you can, as long as your car is legally registered in Singapore. - Do you give discounts for drivers without any demerit points?
A 5% safe driver discount is accorded if you do not have any demerit points and your NCD is 30% and above. You can check on your number of demerit points here. - What if I wrongly declare a higher/lower NCD?
We will verify with your previous insurer and adjust the NCD accordingly. If you declare a higher NCD, you will need to pay the difference in premiums. If you declare a lower NCD, you will be refunded the difference in premiums. - Does InsureDrive cover electric vehicles?
Yes, InsureDrive does provide motor insurance cover for certain electric vehicle models. However, InsureDrive does not cover any claim arising from the use of autonomous driving system. Please refer to the Policy Wording for more information of the coverage.
Coverage
- Which countries am I covered in?
You are covered in Singapore, Peninsular Malaysia (including Penang and other Malaysian islands offshore of Peninsular Malaysia), southern Thailand (within 80km of the border of Malaysia) and when in transit by sea between any of these areas. - What is the difference between Comprehensive, Third-Party, Fire and Theft and Third-Party car insurance?
The three types of car insurance offer different levels of coverage:
- A Comprehensive plan covers legal liability to third parties (both bodily injury and property damage), as well as damage to your own car caused by accidental collisions, fire, theft, floods or other natural disasters.
- A Third-Party, Fire and Theft plan covers legal liability to third parties (both bodily injury and property damage), as well as damage to your own car as a result of fire or theft only.
- A Third-Party plan covers legal liability to third parties (both bodily injury and property damage) only. - What is the difference between a Preferred Plan and Essential Plan?
For Preferred Plan, you may send your car to any workshop of your choice for repairs. For Essential Plan, you must send your car to one of UOI’s authorised workshops for repairs. - My car is still under manufacturer/dealer warranty. Which plan should I consider?
If you are concerned about the warranty being voided if you have your car repaired at a non-dealer workshop, we recommend that you take up the Preferred Plan. - I am the registered owner of the car but do not have a driving license. Can I still buy InsureDrive?
Yes you can. Please contact UOI at 6222 7733 to obtain a quote. - Are my windscreens covered?
Yes, you will be covered if the windscreen is cracked, chipped or broken. An excess of S$100 is applicable for each windscreen replacement. In the event of solar film replacement, an excess of S$500 applies. - What is the benefit of adding named driver(s) to my InsureDrive policy?
By having named driver(s) in your InsureDrive policy, your named driver(s) will enjoy the same lower excess as you. However, for young driver(s) below the age of 25 years old and/or with less than 3 years of driving experience, the excess of S$3,000 will be applicable even if he/she is stated as a Named Driver in the Policy. - Am I able to choose my excess amount to suit my needs?
Yes, you may select your preferred excess amount with our comprehensive plan.
