Frequently Asked Questions

Can I claim from ECICS Motor Excess Protector Insurance if my motor insurance claim is below the policy excess?

In the event of an accident involving your registered vehicle, your insurer for your motor insurance policy must have paid out a claim amount higher than your policy excess in order for you to seek reimbursement on the excess you have paid from your ECICS Motor Excess Protector Insurance Policy. If the claim amount paid out is lower than your policy excess, you will not be able to seek reimbursement from your ECICS Motor Excess Protector Insurance Policy.

What happens to my policy if my FDW is returning to her home country and not coming back?

You will need to cancel her work permit to stop your levy and ensure that you keep a copy of her travel ticket or departure itinerary as proof. MOM will proceed to discharge the Security Bond after verifying that your FDW has left and did not re-enter Singapore. Upon discharge, you may proceed to request for policy cancellation.

What factors affect my premium for ECICS Non-Motor Excess Protector Insurance?
