When purchased online, your policy and claims information is emailed as a PDF document and cover is from the date and time you specify.
THIS INSURANCE IS NOT AVAILABLE TO NZ RESIDENTS
Travellers visiting NZ may find that buying their own vehicle is an attractive option. Older but very serviceable vehicles are very affordable. HOWEVER it could completely ruin your holiday if a driving accident were to leave you responsible for 1000s of $'s worth of damage to someone else's property.
You should insure against this risk, but short term insurance for visitors can be difficult to arrange. Thanks to a BBH initiative, third party motor insurance is readily available from BBH.
It's attractively priced and designed specifically to suit vehicle owning visitors. Should you replace your vehicle, your new vehicle is automatically covered.
