Submit a claim with the right information from the start.

If something has gone wrong, notify us as early as possible. The claims process usually moves better when the core facts, documents, and contact details are prepared up front.

Claims process

These are the basic steps most business insurance claims follow. The exact process can vary depending on the policy type and the nature of the incident.

01

Notify us as soon as possible

Report the incident early so the claim can be logged quickly and the insurer can advise on the next steps.

02

Gather the key details

Prepare your policy number, incident date, what happened, where it happened, and who was involved.

03

Submit supporting documents

Include invoices, photos, police case numbers, witness details, repair quotes, or any documents relevant to the loss.

04

Respond to follow-up queries

Claims often move faster when the insurer receives additional information without delay.
