Welcome to the Netherlands!
As an expat who has just moved to the Netherlands, it’s important to be aware of the different insurances that are necessary. In the Netherlands, there are mandatory insurances as well as strongly recommended insurances.
One of the first steps you need to take is to obtain health insurance. This is mandatory for all residents of the Netherlands. Health insurance covers the costs of medical care such as doctor visits, hospital stays, and medications.
In addition to health insurance, there are other insurances you should consider. For example, home contents insurance is strongly recommended for your residence. This insurance covers damage to your personal belongings such as furniture, appliances, and clothing, resulting from incidents like fire, theft, or water damage.
Liability insurance is also important. This protects you against the financial consequences of damage you accidentally cause to others. This could include situations where you accidentally injure someone or damage someone else’s property.
WA insurance is the minimum insurance required for every car owner in the Netherlands. This insurance covers damage you cause with your car to others. It does not cover damage to your own car. It’s also possible to take out additional insurance for damage to your own car, but this is not mandatory.
Obtaining the right insurances provides peace of mind and protects you financially against unexpected events. Therefore, contact European Insurance for the best advice regarding insurances. What’s special about our services, we can compare insurance so you get the best coverage that suits you.
