In the Netherlands you are, just like with a car, obliged by law to take out a WA insurance for your camper. This is the cheapest motor home insurance, but not the most extensive.

Why is motorhome insurance mandatory?

A motor home is a motorised vehicle. In the Netherlands, you are obliged to take out at least a WA coverage for each motorized vehicle. With a WA camper insurance you are insured for damage that you cause to another with your camper. In the best case it is about damage to the eye, but there can also be personal injury. After a serious accident, in which one or more persons are injured, the costs can run into thousands of euros. To prevent you from being unable to pay and the victims thus not receiving financial compensation, motorhome insurance is mandatory.

WA coverage mandatory in the Netherlands?

If you have a WA motor home insurance, the insurers will pay for the damage you cause to others with the motor home. Both damage to sight and personal injury will be compensated. The victim of the accident can directly submit a claim to the insurer with whom the liable party is insured. A third-party insurance does not cover any damage to your own motor home. For this you need to take out more extensive cover. If you have damage to your camper caused by someone else, you can recover the amount of the damage yourself from the liable person.

Third-party insurance is the cheapest insurance, but also the most limited. For an older motorhome with limited value, third party insurance is often the best choice. For new or high value motorhomes you better choose a more extensive coverage.

Need coverings?

Besides the obligatory WA motor home insurance, you can also opt for WA + Limited Casco or All-Risk motor home insurance. With WA + Limited Comprehensive cover common damages are also insured such as damage to your camper caused by lightning, hail, storm, fire, explosion, window breakage, theft and collision with stray animals. The most extensive coverage for your motorhome insurance is the all-risk coverage. With this cover you are also insured for damage to your own motorhome as a result of an accident. Even if this damage is your own fault.
