Offer Car insurance in the Netherlands

Dutch car insurance

It is mandatory for all cars to have at least third party liability car insurance. The Dutch name for this coverage is WA (Wettelijke Aansprakelijkheid). This car insurance covers damage inflicted with your car to other people and their property. But you can also choose WA Plus or All Risk coverage. These insurances offer a more comprehensive coverage.

Differences between car insurances

Honig en Honig offers different types of car insurances. Depending on your situation and your car you can choose one of these coverages.

  • WA coverage (third party liability)
    The WA insurance is the mandatory and cheapest kind of car insurance. This insurance only covers the damage you caused to another car. Most people with cars older than 10 years choose for this basic insurance.
  • WA coverage (legal liability) + limited Casco or WA Plus
    WA Plus does not only cover damage and injury inflicted to others with your car, but also several types of damage to your own car. The following damages are covered with WA Plus:
    • Theft, burglary and joyriding
    • Damage caused by storm, hail and flood
    • Damage caused by fire
    • Broken or cracked windows
    • Damage caused by vandalism
    • Damage as a result of a collision with stray animals or birds
  • WA coverage (legal liability) + Casco or All risk car insurance
    All Risk car insurance (fully comprehensive / full coverage) provides the most comprehensive coverage. It covers, next to the damages mentioned above, most damages caused to your vehicle. Even damage caused by an accident that was deemed your fault or where fault cannot be determined. All Risk gives you the peace of mind that you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs yourself.

If you want, you can add additional services or benefits to your car insurance policy. These are the additional coverage options you can choose:

  • Damage and Occupants insurance : Ongevallen Inzittenden or Schade Inzittenden

    • With Ongevallen Inzittenden, you and other passengers in your car receive a fixed compensation for permanent impairment as a result of a car accident. In the case of death, relatives will receive a fixed compensation
    • With Schade Inzittenden, all the real costs of injury or death after a car accident will be compensated. Medical costs, but also, for example, loss of income due to the injury.

Own risk and voluntary excess

If you make a claim for damage on your WA Plus or All Risk policy, in some cases you will have to pay an excess (or deductible). With the car insurance you have the option to increase the compulsory excess with a voluntary excess of € 500,- or € 1.000,-. The voluntary excess is an extra amount on top of the compulsory excess. With a voluntary excess you will get a discount on your insurance premium.

You get to choose the coverage and additional extras and you can change the coverage anytime you want. This way you will always have cheap car insurance that suits your needs and demands.

Claim free years and your dutch car insurance

Similar to most European countries, car insurers in the Netherlands follow a bonus/malus system: the more claim-free years you have, the higher the discount you receive on your insurance premium. Every year you are insured without claiming a damage where you are at fault, you earn a claim-free year.
