Will a previous claim affect the price of my car insurance?

Yes, most claims will affect your car insurance premium. The degree to which it increases depends on a couple of different factors: whether you made an “at fault” claim, and the severity of the claim itself.

If, for example, one of your side mirrors was damaged in a no-fault claim, the impact this would have on your car insurance premium would be a lot lower than if your car was written off in an at-fault accident.

How long do claims stay on your insurance?

You’ll likely need to declare any claims made in the last five or six years as most insurance companies check your claims history on a centralised database called the Claims and Underwriting Exchange (CUE). CUE holds records of claims for up to six years.

Do I have to declare claims I’ve made in the past?

Yes, you should always disclose previous accidents and claims you’ve made in the past, though you won’t need to disclose an accident if it happened decades ago. You’ll usually be asked about any claims you’ve made within a certain period of time, such as three or five years. This means you don’t need to declare any claims that occurred outside the specified time period.
