Van Insurance

Van Insurance

Driving a van in the Ireland without insurance is illegal – and leaves
you financially liable for any damage caused to people and property. Choosing the right insurance will protect you financially should you cause damage to people or property.
Irish Providers will distinguish between private, business and sole trader van use. You will need to declare your intended usage as one of these types, and abide by it – otherwise your insurance may be invalidated and make driving your van illegal.
Across each of these categories there are different bands of cover, namely 3rd Party, 3rd Party Fire and Theft, and Comprehensive. You will need to review each band of cover and decide on one that suits you.
- Private van insurance will only cover you for personal use of your van. This may come cheaper where providers assume you will have a lower yearly mileage. It is very important to ensure that your estimated yearly mileage is correct.
- For business users, the commercial van insurance policies available tend to insure the van rather than any specific person. This allows any number of authorised drivers to use the vehicle, although having an open policy will likely raise premiums significantly.
- Another option is to name employees that might use the van on the policy, and doing so often attracts a discount.
- If your usage is classified as sole trader, this assumes you intend to use the van both privately and commercially. While you can expect to pay higher premiums than for private use remember that the business-specific add-ons will protect not only your transportation but also your livelihood.
- Whether private, business or sole trader – if you have more than one van, talk to us about multi-vehicle discounts. {KomentoDisable}
