How To Verify Your Vehicle Insurance by sCross: 2:16pm On Jun 20, 2015
According to sources, about 60% of ALL motor insurance certificates are fake.

NAICOM (National Insurance Commission) and NIA (Nigeria Insurer's Association) have decided to curb this by creating an online platform NIID (Nigerian Insurance Industry Database) for verifying your motor insurance. ALL genuine policies are uploaded on the database.

You can check by going to www.askniid.org/checkpolicy/aspx. Select single from the options. Input your CAR REGISTRATION NUMBER into the field

If it doesn't display corresponding info, it means your insurance certificate is fake and you can't make a claim if anything were to happen to you or your car. Furthermore, the authorities could impound your vehicle.

If you'd like to purchase a genuine certificate, contact me.

Your brother in law's cert is also fake or non existent.

An original genuine 3rd party is 5k and you can do it yourself and get your certificate immediately thanks to technology. With a genuine 3rd party, the insurance coy covers any damage done to another person or car up to 1M.

I think the biggest problem with insurance in Nigeria is that we as customers don't know that much about insurance and as a result we make insurance decisions based on the words of an insurance broker. While speaking to a expert in the field is obviously the right thing to do. You cant be completely sure this insurance salesperson is providing you a product that is in your best interest.

If for example you are in the market for a [url={http://compareguru.ng/insurance/car-insurance}]{car insurance}[/url] package, use the internet to do your own research and/or find a comparison websites that will compare car insurance packages from different insurance companies.
