How to make a motor claim

During your claim we may ask you for some or all of the following:

• Your policy number
• Details of what happened, where it happened and who was involved
• Details of any damage (including photos)
• Details of any emergency services involved or Garda Pulse Reference number (where applicable)
• Any supporting documentation you have available

At Zurich we are pragmatic and understanding in our approach to the current delays at the National Car Testing Service.

Under the current circumstances, provided you make every effort to book your appointment in the normal way and if, through no fault of your own, you are unable to obtain your NCT due to backlogs at test centres, your cover will continue as normal provided there is evidence of an NCT appointment booking. Motor-insurance and road-traffic legislation require that motorists maintain their vehicles in a roadworthy condition at all times, and this remains the case. In the event of damage to the insured car, where the vehicle has been maintained in a roadworthy condition, we will continue to pay claims in line with the policy terms and conditions.
