Have a question?

You don’t need to list them on your policy unless they’re the registered owner of the car. NRMA Insurance cover anyone who drives your car, even if they’re not listed7.

If your car’s damaged and NRMA Insurance decide it can be repaired, you can have it fixed by an NRMA Insurance Partner Repairer.

There are more than 400 NRMA Insurance Partner Repairers across Australia and NRMA Insurance will help find one that's convenient for you. NRMA Insurance will manage the repair process with them so you don’t have to worry.

If you've added the Any repairer option, when your car’s damaged and NRMA Insurance decide it can be repaired, you can choose any licensed repairer to fix it (including an NRMA Insurance Partner Repairer). If you choose someone other than an NRMA Insurance Partner Repairer, you might need to manage the repair process yourself.

With Comprehensive Plus Car Insurance, NRMA Insurance pay for a hire car if your car can’t be driven after any covered event.

If you’re in an accident caused by another driver, you need to be able to provide their name and address and NRMA Insurance need to agree it’s the other driver’s fault. NRMA Insurance will pay for a hire car until your car’s repaired or they pay your claim as a total loss.

If your car’s stolen, NRMA Insurance will pay up to $100 a day for a hire car until your car’s found and repaired, or until NRMA Insurance pay your claim as a total loss (whichever’s first).

If your car can’t be driven after any other event NRMA Insurance cover, they’ll pay up to $100 a day for a hire car until your vehicle’s repaired, or until they pay your claim as a total loss (whichever’s first).

Apply online and your International Driving Permit can be sent to you within five business days.
