Car insurance by chassis number: how does it work?
How do you insure a car by chassis number? We'll get into it in this article. But maybe it's good to first explain what a chassis is. Before your car actually looks like a car as we know it, there is already a chassis. The chassis can be described as the undercarriage of the vehicle. So this is where the complete body (the can) is still missing.
At this time, we do not have options to insure a car by chassis number
What is a chassis number?
To distinguish between the many cars driving around, the chassis is numbered. This number is engraved on the chassis and makes the car "unique. This can be useful, for example, when identifying a vehicle after theft. Because no matter how the body is modified: the chassis number remains the chassis number and that, in turn, is linked to the registration certificate.
Why insure a car by chassis number?
Are you importing a car? Or are you buying up a chassis and then tinkering with the chassis yourself? If the chassis is on public roads, insurance is mandatory. These are situations where insuring a chassis number is convenient.
What about in case of theft? As indicated, the chassis number is inseparable from the chassis.
Are you buying a car (or chassis) where you fear theft? Is this a car that will eventually be insured normally? Then insurance by chassis number is also a good idea.
Where can I get a car insured by chassis number?
Not every insurer insures chassis numbers. It is advisable to check with your own insurer. Does your own insurer not have this option? It is often the case that insurers who specialize in vintage cars insure chassis numbers. If you search on an online search engine for the term "insure chassis number," there are often plenty of options. Does your current insurer insure chassis numbers? Then of course it is extra nice to choose this insurer. But as is true when taking out any new car insurance, this also applies to chassis number insurance: always check the policy terms and conditions!
