FAQs
Is there a fixed price list for TPL premiums?
No. Your TPL premium is calculated individually based on a variety of factors, including but not limited to the value of your car.
My car is less than 5 years old. Can I still get a TPL, or is it mandatory to get a comprehensive insurance cover?
You can get a basic TPL insurance policy regardless of your vehicle’s age and condition. You can’t, however, upgrade your TPL policy to comprehensive if your car is older than 15 years. Keep in mind also that TPL is a compulsory insurance policy for private car owners in Qatar, and you cannot drive legally without it.
Is TPL car insurance a good option for car owners?
TPL is the standard and mandatory auto insurance cover. You should decide though if TPL is enough for you or if you should opt for a comprehensive cover based on your driving and insurance needs.
Can I extend my TPL to a comprehensive policy?
Yes. Comprehensive insurance is a voluntary choice but you can always upgrade your TPL to comprehensive motor insurance. This extension has many benefits, allowing you not to worry about expenses related to your motor vehicle damages, and it’s especially important if you have a new car or if your car is rare and expensive.
If I upgrade my insurance from TPL to Comprehensive, can I add extra coverage later?
Yes, you can add new covers to your policy at any time. You may consider including roadside assistance, or an off-road cover if you drive on unpaved roads. Or you may want to have financial protection against natural disasters such as storms or floods. And much else.
I was involved in an accident, and it wasn’t my fault, will my TPL cover the cost of repairs?
Your TPL only covers third party damage.
Will my TPL policy cover my automobile in case of theft?
TPL policies only cover third-party (TP) liabilities and damages caused to 3rd parties. Therefore, your TPL won’t cover your losses if your car is stolen. If you want to financially protect yourself against theft, the best choice is to get comprehensive coverage.
Does it cover rental cars?
In Qatar, auto insurance covers the vehicle rather than the driver. Thus it covers the car you insure but does not cover rental cars or any other vehicles you might drive.
What is the meaning of TPL insurance?
The meaning of TPL insurance, or Third Party Liability insurance, lies in its coverage of legal liabilities for damages or injuries you may cause to others or their property in an accident. A mandatory third-party motor insurance policy covers these liabilities but does not extend to damages to your vehicle or personal injuries.
Do I need to scan and submit any paperwork after buying my third party car insurance online?
No. QIC is a digital insurance company, and the entire car insurance purchasing process on our website is fully digital, instant, and paperless.
What is Gap Insurance?
Gap extension (or Gap Insurance) is a payment of the difference between the original purchase price and the total loss claim payment in case your car is declared a total loss. It’s especially important for car owners whose cars are financed. Note that Gap Insurance is only available for Comprehensive policy holders, so consider upgrading your TPL insurance policy to Comprehensive.
