DirectAsia Car Insurance Claims


How do claims work?
Firstly, youâve got to be clear of the parties involved in a car accident before you make a claim.
The First Party
Once youâve purchased a car insurance policy from DirectAsia, you become the First Party in terms of the contract.
The Second Party
The insurance company, DirectAsia, from whom you have purchased the policy by paying the insurance premium for your vehicle, is the Second Party in the contract.
The Third Party
Someone other than the First (you) and Second Party (DirectAsia). It can be anyone. For example, another driver on the road or a cyclist on the street.


Here are 6 steps to a successful car insurance claim
Step 1
Report to DirectAsia within 24 hours of the accident
Be it a First Party or Third Party Claim, DirectAsia requires claim reports to be made within 24 hours. It is best to inform DirectAsia within this timeframe regardless of whether or not you intend to claim on your own policy or if your car is damaged. This is to avoid breaching the policyâs terms and conditions, which may affect your claim process. As long as a third party is involved, DirectAsia would still need to have his/her details (regardless of whether he/she submits a claim against you).
Step 2
Take damage and accident scene photos
Take photos with tight shots and wide shots from various angles to ensure that you get sufficient photographic footage of the scene and context of the accident. The license plates of all vehicles involved should be photographed as well, as all these might be needed as evidence for DirectAsia to process your claim. This is mandatory for both First Party and Third Party Claims. You may use DirectAsiaâs Accident Toolkit Sketch Plan to help you on this.
Step 3
Get the other driverâs contact details
This step will not be applicable for First Party Claims. For Third Party Damage Claims, you will need his/her contact details which include:
Alternatively, you can use the Exchange of particulars form on DirectAsiaâs claims page
- Driver names of all involved
- NRIC numbers
- Address of driver / drivers
- Car insurance company of vehicles involved
- Contact numbers
Alternatively, you can use the Exchange of particulars form on DirectAsiaâs claims page
Step 4
Avoid moving the vehicle
Do not move the vehicle or vehicles involved in the accident unless they are in the middle of the road and pose a safety hazard. When it comes to Third Party Damage Claims, moving the vehicles may give DirectAsia and the other driverâs insurance company a chance to dispute your claim.
Step 5
Submit claim report to DirectAsia
After contacting DirectAsia Personal Claims Specialists at +65 6532 1818, DirectAsia will send someone to assist you at the accident site and arrange for medical attention, vehicle removal and alternative transportation. You are required to make a report and submit a claim in person at any of their authorised workshops. If youâre planning to pay off the repair costs on your own to save on claim cost or protect your No Claim Discount (NCD), youâll still have to lodge a report at any of DirectAsiaâs authorised workshops and submit a Private settlement form on DirectAsia's claims page. Do remember to call the authorised workshop before dropping by.
Step 6
Get your car fixed at any DirectAsia authorised workshop
Some insurers like DirectAsia offer complimentary towing services while others may charge a separate fee. It is advisable to avoid using other tow operators or touts as this will delay your claim. Seek advice from DirectAsia Personal Claims Specialists at +65 6532 1818 if you are unsure. You have the option to send your car to the workshop of your choice instead of DirectAsiaâs authorised workshops if youâve got the âMy Workshopâ add-on.
