ABCforsikringsagentur A/S (trading as ABCforsikring, also registered under the binamn ABCforsikring A/S)
ABCforsikring
ABCforsikring is a motor third-party liability insurance for the Denmark market with online purchase and limited assistance availability.
Direct payment
The product's own materials do not contain an explicit clause spelling out a 'direct payment vs. reimbursement' policy for the MTPL (ansvarsforsikring) cover itself. As liability cover, it pays compensation for damage the policyholder's vehicle causes to third parties (their claim, in Denmark 'de summer, som er fastsat i færdselsloven') rather than reimbursing the policyholder. For the related repair/claims process (mainly relevant to kasko), ABC Forsikring's own claims page states that under the agreement they help arrange repair of damage below the deductible at a fair price via partner repair shops, but customers are equally free to use their own workshop.
Geographic scope
Denmark
Covers liability claims in Denmark and, as proof via the Green Card, in countries participating in the Green Card scheme; a physical green card is no longer required within the EU/EEA but is still required in some non-EU countries such as Kosovo.
Unique selling points
- Covers aftermarket equipment up to 30,000 DKK, well above the 10-15,000 DKK typically offered by many competitors.
- Unlimited mileage with no reduced compensation or higher deductible if actual driving exceeds the declared expectation.
- Deductible automatically declines by 1,000 DKK per claim-free year from 5,000 DKK down to a minimum of 3,000 DKK, or a fixed 2,500 DKK option for drivers 30+.
- Optional Førerplads driver protection compensates the driver in solo accidents as if a liable third party had been involved.
- Optional glass cover repairs with zero deductible and replacement at only 1,500 DKK, plus roadside assistance with up to 3 free call-outs a year.
Coverage limits
Bodily injury liability
Covered
No limit stated
The mandatory liability cover (Ansvarsdækning) compensates third parties for bodily injury caused by the insured vehicle; compensation is assessed according to the rules and rates of the Danish Liability for Damages Act (Erstatningsansvarsloven). The specific statutory ceiling (set annually under the Road Traffic Act) is not stated in the reviewed excerpts.
Property damage liability
Covered
No limit stated
The mandatory liability cover compensates third parties for damage to their property (e.g. other vehicles, buildings) caused by the insured vehicle in use. The specific statutory ceiling for property damage is not stated in the reviewed excerpts.
Legal expenses cover (retshjælp)
Conditional
Only in Kaskodækningen
A legal-expenses clause appears in the kasko (comprehensive) section of ABC's car T&C, with an excess of 3,900 DKK per legal instance; it is not confirmed as part of the standalone third-party liability (ansvar-only) cover and appears to activate only if comprehensive (kasko) cover is also purchased. The insured coverage sum itself is not stated in the reviewed excerpt.
Green Card (international liability proof)
Covered
ABC's liability cover is valid throughout EU/EEA countries with a valid Danish registration plate as proof of insurance; a printed green card is no longer required within the EU/EEA since 1 July 2020 but is still required for some countries outside the EU (e.g. Kosovo), and can be printed on white or green paper.
Roadside assistance
€3
Only in Udvidet Glas, Vejhjælp, Førerplads, Parkeringsskade
Optional roadside assistance via SOS DAH Dansk Autohjælp, offering up to 3 assistance calls annually, normally without any deductible, covering situations such as engine failure, flat battery, and puncture.
Driver protection (Førerplads)
Optional
No limit stated
Only in Udvidet Glas, Vejhjælp, Førerplads, Parkeringsskade
Optional 'Førerplads' cover protects the driver in solo accidents (no third party involved), compensating the driver as if a liable counterparty had been involved, under the Liability for Damages Act. No specific insured sum is stated in the reviewed excerpts.
Passenger accident/injury cover
Covered
No limit stated
Passengers in the car are normally covered for personal injury under the liability (ansvar) cover if there is a liable counterparty; the driver alone is not covered this way unless the optional Førerplads is purchased. No specific insured sum is stated in the reviewed excerpts.
Key conditions
Territorial scope
The liability cover applies in Denmark and, via the Green Card, in EU/EEA and other Green Card scheme countries; some non-EU countries such as Kosovo still require a physically printed green card at the border.
Green card rules
Since 1 July 2020 the green card can be printed on white or green paper and is generally not required within the EU/EEA, but customers should obtain a physical copy from ABC before travelling to countries such as Kosovo that do not accept the digital/EU exemption.
Driver restrictions
Drivers under 24 years of age are subject to double deductible from the second claim within a 3-year period; drivers aged 30 or older may instead opt for a fixed deductible of 2,500 DKK.
Claim notification deadline
Claims can be pre-reported immediately via the ABCforsikring app, with photos and documentation submitted electronically; claims can also be reported by phone or email to the service/claims centre.
Bonus-malus rules
ABC does not automatically increase the premium after a claim (fixed premium); instead, the standard deductible of 5,000 DKK falls by 1,000 DKK per claim-free year down to a minimum of 3,000 DKK, unless the policyholder is 30+ and has chosen the fixed 2,500 DKK deductible option.
