FAQ

What is e-hailing car insurance?
E-hailing insurance is a special type of coverage required for cars used for ride-hailing services like Grab, MyCar, and InDriver. It covers both e-hailing usage periods and personal use of the vehicle.
How much does e-hailing insurance cost in Malaysia?
E-hailing insurance is typically 30-80% more expensive than regular comprehensive insurance. Expect to pay RM 1,200-3,000 for a standard sedan, depending on the car value, coverage type, and add-ons.
Can I use regular insurance for e-hailing?
No. Regular private car insurance explicitly excludes commercial use including e-hailing. If you have an accident while doing e-hailing without proper insurance, your claim will be rejected.
Which insurers offer e-hailing insurance?
Zurich (via Grab), Allianz, Etiqa, and several other insurers offer dedicated e-hailing plans. Coverage and pricing vary significantly — comparison shopping is essential.
What does e-hailing insurance cover?
E-hailing insurance covers: own damage, third-party liability, passenger liability, and personal accident for driver and passengers. Add-ons like windscreen and flood cover are also available.
Do I need PSV license for e-hailing insurance?
Yes — you need a valid PSV (Public Service Vehicle) license, e-hailing vehicle permit (EVP), and your car must pass PUSPAKOM inspection to qualify for e-hailing insurance.
