Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between Commercial Vehicle and Private Motor Car insurance?

Private Motor Car insurance covers private motor cars for personal or domestic usage. Commercial vehicle insurance, on the other hand, covers commercial vehicles used for business or commercial purposes.

What happens if the Foreign Worker Bond is forfeited?

If you or your foreign worker breaches any of MOM’s rules or conditions, MOM may forfeit the bond and demand for payment from ECICS. ECICS will pay $5,000 to MOM on your behalf and in such cases, we will seek recovery of the amount from you.

What if I provided the wrong email address?​

ECICS and Shell are not responsible if the voucher cannot be delivered due to an invalid or incorrect email address.​

How much sum insured should I buy?

You do not need to choose a sum insured that is equivalent to your excess amount. There is no limit on the number of claims as long as the total claim does not exceed your chosen sum insured per policy year. However, if your chosen sum insured is lower than the excess imposed on your motor insurance policy, ECICS will only pay up to the sum insured during the period of insurance.

What is a Motor Excess Protector insurance?

ECICS Motor Excess Protector Insurance reimburses the excess amount you are required to pay under your motor insurance policy when you make a claim. It helps reduce your out-of-pocket expenses after an accident.

My FDW’s age is 61 years old, can I still renew her policy?

The eligibility criteria states that the insured FDW must be between 23 and 60 years old at the time of application. This means that individuals outside of this age range may not qualify for coverage under the insurance policy.

Are pre-existing medical conditions covered?

It is only covered under Hospital & Surgical Expenses if the FDW had been under your employment for more than 12 months.

Can I purchase only the $5,000 Security Bond without the accompanying insurance?

No. The Security Bond is included in our Enhanced MaidAssure along with MOM’s minimum medical and personal accident insurance as a package. We do not offer just the Security Bond.

What is a Security Bond?

A Security Bond is a commitment to reimburse the government if either you or your FDW violates or fail to adhere to the terms and conditions of the work permit. This bond typically takes the form of a banker's or insurer's guarantee. For each FDW you employ (excluding Malaysian helpers), you are required to purchase a $5,000 security bond.

Can I buy Waiver of Counter Indemnity after my policy has incepted?

No, you are not able to purchase the Waiver of Counter Indemnity after policy has incepted.

What to do in the event of an accident?

Please remain calm and check that nobody is injured. If someone is injured, you will need to call the ambulance at 995 and police at 999 immediately. You must also not shift your vehicle from its original position.You can contact our accident-assistance support available on 24/7 at +65 6206 5588 (option 9).

What is an “Unnamed Driver” in motor policy?

Unnamed Driver refers to someone who is not named under a private car policy.

Do you have Excess Waiver in your Private Motor Car insurance policy?

Yes, we offer complimentary excess waiver of up to $750 (depending on your current NCD%) for the first claim in a policy year when you repair your accident car at ECICS’s authorized workshops and share your in-car cctv footage with us.

Are there any additional excess(es) imposed on Unnamed Drivers?

If your policy covers Unnamed Drivers, there are additional excess(es) for Unnamed Drivers and Unnamed Young or Inexperienced Drivers. Such additional excess(es) will be applicable on top of the standard policy excess. Please refer to your policy wording for more information.

Do I still need to make an accident report even if there are no damages to my vehicle or a private settlement had been reached between parties involved?

Under the Motor Claims Framework (MCF), in any accident regardless how minor it was, it is a requirement that an accident report be lodged in any of our Approved Reporting Centres within 24 hours or by the next working day. Your insurer will do the necessary and review the matter upon receiving the signed Private Settlement form.

Do I need Motorcycle insurance in Singapore?
