Car Insurance Ireland

There’s no one-size-fits-all price when it comes to car insurance. Your quote is calculated based on the information you provide and depends on the details of your car such as the make and model of your vehicle as well as how many years claims free driving you have.

All you have to do to get your car insurance quote is follow our simple online journey. These include your name, date of birth, contact information, car details, driving experience and your preferred type of cover, to name a few. You'll have your quote in a matter of minutes.

Then, all that's left is to decide whether you're happy to proceed.

The first step in the process is to provide us with some personal details – like your name and policy number. You'll then be able to tell us what happened in your own words, as well as what damage your vehicle suffered. It'll also be helpful to give us details of anyone else involved; – other drivers, passengers in any cars involved, or witnesses.

Your Personal Claims Handler will then get things moving. And we'll always let you know what happens next. To start your claim, please call our 24-hour helpline on 1800 147 147.

With our Step-back No Claims Discount, you keep part or all of your discount even after certain claims. This is an optional cover with an additional premium.

A no claims discount can provide you with a discount on the cost of your car insurance for every consecutive year you hold a policy, in your own name, without making a claim. You can avail of up to a 50% discount on an Aviva car insurance policy, if you are claims free for the last 5 years or more. This is the maximum no claims discount we offer.

Yes, for policies cancelled after the 14-day cooling-off period, we will work out the premium for the period for which we have insured you and refund any balance.   We will not refund any premium if you have made a claim or if one has been made against you during the current period of insurance. If you pay your premium by monthly instalments (direct debit) and you have made a claim, or one has been made against you, the balance of the annual premium will become payable to Aviva upon cancellation. Please refer to our policy booklet for more details.
