Car insurances in the Netherlands

UnitedConsumers offers different types of car insurances. Depending on your situation and your car, you can choose one of these different coverages. In the Netherlands a basic WA coverage is mandatory for all drivers. It covers damage caused by you to third parties. With a limited casco or all risk coverage you can also claim damage done to your own car (by yourself) as well. 

WA coverage (third party liability)

The WA insurance is the mandatory and cheapest kind of car insurance. This car insurance only covers the damage you cause to others. Most people with cars older than 10 years old, choose for this basic car insurance.

WA limited casco coverage (legal liability + limited coverage)

This type of car insurance covers the damage you cause to others. Damage caused by yourself to your own car is not covered. A limited Casco does offer you a coverage for damages caused by theft, collision with animals, storm or window damage. This insurance is mostly chosen for 5- 10 year-old cars.

All Risk coverage (legal liability + all risk coverage)

This car insurance covers damage you cause to others and almost all damage done to your own car. This car insurance is recommended for people who just bought a new car or for people who can't take the financial risk to replace their car when needed.
