If you currently insure your home and contents and you're selling to move into a new home, we cover your new home for a certain period of time (from when you enter the contract to buy it) and your current home.

From the time you sign the contract to buy your new permanent home, your interest in that home is covered up to the value of the deposit. You're covered until the contract settlement date, the date the contract's terminated, or for 90 days after you enter into the contract (whichever's first).

If you have Contents Insurance, your contents are covered at both your current and new home for up to 14 days.

We also cover items being moved to your new home if they're damaged by certain events while in transit, up to a total of $10,000.

You'll need to give us the details of your new home within 14 days from when you start moving.

To learn more about what you're covered for, read the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) on our policy booklets page, or call us on 132 132.

  • First purchased before 21 April 2024 and not yet renewed

If you need to change or add something to your cover, you’ll need to provide:

  • your policy number
  • some information about your business activities
  • details of the business premises including address, age and security details.

If you’re making a change specifically about a vehicle, agricultural machinery, or other business items, then you may need to also provide:

  • registration and VIN numbers
  • serial numbers and make and model information.

We need this information to help you decide on the cover you need and to assist with identifying items in the event they’re stolen and you need to make a claim.
