Third Party Insurance ACT

Who can make a claim?

If you have been injured in a motor vehicle accident and the driver of another vehicle was at fault, you may be able to claim compensation.  If a person dies as a result of a motor vehicle accident, close relatives may also be able to claim financial compensation. 

You cannot make a TPI claim if you were the driver of the vehicle at fault. You can claim against the TPI of the vehicle at fault whether you were a driver, motorcyclist, passenger, pillion passenger, pedestrian or a cyclist.  If the vehicle that caused the accident was registered in the ACT, you can submit a Personal Injury Claim with NRMA Insurance.

For accidents prior to 1 October 2008:

1. Fill in a Personal Injury Claim Notification Form (PDF); and 
2. Ask your doctor to fill in a medical certificate (PDF)

For accidents after 1 October 2008:

1. If your accident happened within the last 28 days, just submit a Motor Accident Notification form and a Motor Accident Medical Report to us and we can get started on your recovery.
2. If it has been longer than 28 days since your accident but less than 9 months, please submit a Notice of Claim and Additional Information form to us as well as the Motor Accident Notification form and Motor Accident Medical Report.

Once you have completed the necessary forms post them to:
