What is the cooling off period when taking out a car insurance policy?

You are looking for a suitable car insurance, but there are many providers on the market which makes it difficult for you to make a good choice. On our website you will find a careful selection of a number of insurance companies we do business with. We have made this selection based on the premium, but also quality of conditions, experience and how a company behaves when a claim is made. When comparing insurance policies, we look at your personal situation and specific needs.

Not satisfied with the coverage or still want to take the insurance elsewhere? No problem! You can cancel within 14 days, after receipt of the policy, without giving reasons, free of charge. This is a legal reflection period, this reflection period also applies to taking out car insurance.

When does the cooling-off period start?

The 14-day cooling-off period on your car insurance starts when you receive the policy. You may receive the policy by mail as well as by post. If you receive the policy by mail first, the cooling-off period starts from that moment.

If you take advantage of the 14-day cooling-off period, you should be aware that there was never any coverage on the car insurance. This also means that you have to take out a new, minimum WA car insurance policy in order to meet your insurance obligation. This way you avoid a fine from the RDW, due to the fact that the vehicle is uninsured in your name.

After canceling the car insurance within the reflection period, you will receive a confirmation of the cancellation from us.
