One of the most important aspects of owning a vehicle in the UAE is maintaining the required essential documents. Your car insurance in Dubai and all other emirates is one of the most crucial documents you need to carry with you at all times. According to the Ministerial Resolution No. (178) on Rules and Procedures of Traffic Control in the UAE (2017), motorists who are found driving without proper motor insurance in Dubai and other cities are subject to 4 black traffic points, a 500 AED fine, and a 7-day car impoundment. 

Always try to keep your insurance documents safe. Even if you take all the necessary steps and your motor insurance documents are lost, you don't need to worry because you can easily get duplicate copies of them. Purchasing a duplicate copy of your car is very simple!

Offline

If you'd prefer to apply for a duplicate copy of your car insurance offline, there are three options listed below:

Contact the insurance provider: Request a duplicate copy of your car insurance. 

Email: Check the whole email chain with the insurance agent you had at the time of purchase. Your email inbox may be of assistance here. The same email can be used to follow up with the agent and ask for a duplicate copy of your car insurance policy or instructions on how to get one.

Application submission: You may also alert the insurer about the missing policy documents and request a copy in the letter. All requirements must be met, including the cause of the loss and policy information like the date of issue, number, and cover.

It is essential to raise the requirement for a duplicate copy of your car insurance and to inquire about the steps that must be taken. 

Contact An Insurance Agent

If you purchased your motor insurance through an agent rather than directly from the insurance provider, you should get in touch with them. Most agents never fail to keep a copy of their customers’ insurance documents. So, you can request duplicate copies in PDF form.
