What happens to my policy if my FDW is returning to her home country and not coming back?

You will need to cancel her work permit to stop your levy and ensure that you keep a copy of her travel ticket or departure itinerary as proof. MOM will proceed to discharge the Security Bond after verifying that your FDW has left and did not re-enter Singapore. Upon discharge, you may proceed to request for policy cancellation.

If the policyholder made a NCD withdrawal, will it affect all the Family NCD members?

No, all earned Family-NCD remains intact so long as the policy is in-force. Each Family NCD member can only utilize their Family-NCD once with us and is not transferrable.

What if my job falls in between Class 1 and Class 2?

Always select the higher risk occupation class if your job falls between two classes. This ensures you remain fully covered and avoids issues during claims assessment.

How do I determine the effective date of the policy?

Here's how you can determine the effective date based on each situation:For New FDW:The policy's effective date should be the date your FDW arrives in Singapore. This ensures that insurance coverage begins when the FDW starts her employment duties upon arrival in the country.For Transferred FDW:The policy's effective date should be the day you wish to apply for the issuance of her work permit at MOM. This ensures that insurance coverage is in place when the FDW's work permit is processed and approved for transfer to your employment.For Renewal FDW:The policy's effective date should be one day after the current work permit's expiry date. This ensures that insurance coverage seamlessly continues without any gaps when renewing the FDW's work permit for continued employment.

If I have 2 policies (2 vehicles) insured with ECICS and bought Family NCD plans with a member appearing in both policies. What will happen if one of the policy experiences an accident claim by the Family NCD member (named driver)?

The policy that experiences the accident claim will have the entire group of Family NCD members' (named drivers) Family-NCD reduced according to the GIA NCD framework (https://gia.org.sg/). We believe that promoting safe driving is a family affair. However, the other policy with us will not be affected, all earned Family-NCDs in that policy will remain intact.

What are the actions I need to take at the accident scene?

You should remember to take note on the following (if the traffic condition permits):Take photos and videos of the accident scene, surrounding areas, damaged property and the damages of the vehicles involved together with their license plate numbers.Exchange particulars with all drivers involved in the accident.Actual road name and any prominent landmarks.If possible, take down the particulars of all injured persons and note the extent of the injuries sustained.
