What car insurance do I need in SA?

As part of the car registration process in SA, you’ll need to choose a provider for your Compulsory Third Party (CTP) Insurance, which covers costs that arise from injuries caused by car accidents. Once that’s taken care of, consider coverage for damage to cars and property, with Third Party Property Damage or Comprehensive Car Insurance.

Damage by uninsured drivers

When your car is damaged by a collision with another vehicle driven by an uninsured driver, we cover damage to your car (up to the amount of $5,000), but only if, the other driver was entirely at fault and you can give us the name and address of the person at fault and the registration number of the at fault vehicle.​

New for old replacement

If your car's less than 2 years old and you're the first registered owner, if your car is stolen or damaged and your claim is accepted as a total loss, where possible we'll replace it with a new car of the same make, model and series as your car. See the PDS for full details.

Hire car after not-at-fault-incidents

At AAMI after a not-at-fault accident we provide you with a hire car that meets your needs (for until your car is repaired and returned, or your claim is settled) if you can provide full details of the at-fault driver and their vehicle. Some exclusions apply, refer to the PDS for full conditions.

Modifications and accessories

At AAMI we cover all legal modifications and accessories fitted to your car, there is usually no need to list them on your policy. If you choose to insure for an amount covered, just ensure the amount you cover your car for is enough to also include the value of the insured accessories and modifications. If you choose to insure for market value, the value of all insured accessories and modifications will be included within your vehicles market value, which we determine at claim time.
