Navigating Accident Claims in Singapore: A Comprehensive Guide

Navigating accident claims in Singapore can feel overwhelming, especially in the aftermath of a collision. This comprehensive guide is designed to walk you through every step of the claims process so you can protect your rights and maximise your settlement.

Understanding what to do immediately after an accident is crucial. The actions you take in the first few hours can significantly impact your claim outcome.

1. Ensure safety first — move to a safe location if possible and check for injuries.

2. Call the police if there are injuries, significant damage, or a hit-and-run.

3. Exchange information with all parties involved: name, NRIC/passport, contact number, vehicle registration, and insurer details.

4. Take photographs of the scene, all vehicles involved, road markings, and any visible injuries.

5. Gather witness details if possible.

Most Singapore insurers require you to make an accident report within 24 hours, regardless of whether you intend to claim. Failure to do so may void your policy.

When submitting your claim, ensure you include the police report number, all photographs, medical reports if applicable, and witness statements.
