FAQs

GET ANSWERS TO COMMON QUERIES RELATED TO HOME INSURANCE

  • Building – The value, also known as ‘sum insured’ is the cost for rebuilding the property in the event that your home is damaged beyond repair.
  • Contents – The sum insured should be the total current value of all the items you own inside your home.
  • Personal Belongings – The sum insured is the total current value for items such as jewellery, it is highly recommended to have these valued on a yearly basis to ensure that you are insuring your expensive piece of jewellery at the right value.

SAL is the maximum amount an insurer will pay for a single valuable item in the event of a claim.

So if your insurer’s single article limit for personal belongings is AED 10,000 and you happen to own a watch worth AED 18,000, that you have not listed it in your policy, the insurer would only cover you up to AED 10,000 at the time of a claim.

It is the amount to be paid by you and is applicable for every claim. It is not to be paid upfront for a valid claim, but the amount that will be deducted from the total claim amount payable.

Home contents costs roughly 0.6 percent of the total coverage value per year when insuring household contents.

For buildings, insurance costs are as low 0.1 percent of the insured value per annum.building insurance is based on the rebuild value and its risk profile.

So, if the total value of your home’s contents was an estimated AED 50,000, an insurance premium of AED 300 per annum is all it would take to protect these items against loss or damage.

Legally, your landlord is only required to have home insurance in cases where the property is mortgaged. And even if your landlord does have home insurance in place, this will only cover the physical premises of the property and not the contents of the house.

While buildings insurance is mandatory in the UAE, home contents cover is not.

House contents value is calculated on the basis of the current market value of the building and/or contents.

The cost of insuring home contents and personal effects in the UAE hovered around an average of 0.6 percent of the value of those items.
