Home insurance
Home insurance is comprehensive insurance for you, your family and belongings.
Home insurance includes contents insurance and family and leisure insurance. You can also choose to add comprehensive content insurance and travel insurance.
Family composition, insurance coverage preferences, and individual risks vary, so the insurance can be customised to suit everyone’s needs.
Contents insurance covers property and personal belongings that are part of a general household against fire, theft, and water damage. Contents insurance is suitable for those who want to protect their belongings, whether they are at their primary residence or elsewhere. Contents insurance also includes liability insurance, which provides financial protection if a family member becomes liable for damages to others.
Family and leisure insurance is comprehensive coverage for you and your family. It includes leisure-time accident insurance, emergency assistance for domestic violence, trauma counselling, hospitalisation insurance, and legal expense insurance.
Comprehensive contents insurance is an optional coverage that can be chosen with contents insurance. Comprehensive contents insurance covers damage to your belongings caused by sudden, unexpected and external events. The insurance is valid in Iceland and while travelling abroad for up to 92 consecutive days from the date of departure from Iceland. The most common claims covered by comprehensive contents insurance include damage to mobile phones, computers and glasses.
Travel insurance is an optional coverage that can be chosen with content insurance. The main advantage of having both credit card travel insurance and travel insurance (cover in home insurance) is that if the maximum compensation under one policy is reached, the other insurance can provide compensation in the event of an extensive loss. The insurance is valid for 92 days from the date of departure from Iceland.
