FAQ
- Can you use ordinary private car insurance to drive for Grab? Private car insurance (code 110) states private use, not hire. If something happens while you are carrying a passenger, you may have problems with your claim. You should switch to a plan that states RY.18 or code 730.
- What is code 730? It is the vehicle use code in the policy for a car for hire via an electronic system, which matches cars registered as RY.18.
- Can a car over 9 years old be insured? This plan accepts cars up to 9 years old. For older cars, see the Class 3 RY.18 plan instead.
- Does the THB 26,857 premium include tax? No, it does not include tax, stamp duty or CMI. The actual premium depends on the sum insured and car model.
- If a passenger is injured, does the insurance pay? There is THB 50,000 of medical expenses cover and THB 50,000 of accident cover under the policy conditions, in addition to CMI.
