What car insurance do I need in New South Wales?
CTP insurance (also known as green slip insurance in NSW) is mandatory in Australia. In NSW, you have to buy CTP insurance before you can register your vehicle (it is not included in your registration cost). CTP insurance protects the driver from liability if they injure or kill someone in a motor accident. It doesn’t cover you for damage to vehicles or property.
To cover this, you can take out third party insurance or comprehensive insurance. A third party property damage policy covers damage to other people’s vehicles or property, while third party fire and theft covers property damage plus damage to your car if it is stolen or damaged by fire.
Comprehensive car insurance gives you the highest level of cover, and it is also the most expensive type of car insurance. It covers damage to other people’s property, plus damage to your car caused by various events such as fire, floods, storms, theft and car accidents. Exactly what you are covered for will depend on the policy you take out.
