Coverage limits
Collision Cover (Törmäysturva)
Covered
Covers sudden and unforeseen direct property damage caused by collision, running off road, overturning or similar external event. Excludes windscreen breakage if vehicle is not otherwise damaged. Damage in connection with theft is only covered if the vehicle was properly locked as per section 3.2.1. Repair costs compensated up to the fair market value of the vehicle before the loss. Compensation basis is fair market value at time of loss.
Total Loss / Redemption Cover (Lunastusturva)
Covered
If a vehicle cannot be repaired cost-effectively, it is redeemed at fair market value. With the optional Lunastusturva (redemption cover), if the vehicle is max 3 years old, driven max 60,000 km, repair cost estimate exceeds 50% of the new vehicle price, and the policyholder is the first owner, the vehicle is redeemed at new vehicle list price. Otherwise, if repair cost estimate exceeds 60% of fair market value, compensation is fair market value plus 30%. The maximum is capped at the new vehicle list price.
Partial Loss / Repair Cover
Covered
Partial losses are compensated primarily by paying repair costs up to the fair market value of the vehicle before the loss minus the deductible. If repairs are not practical (due to vehicle age, parts availability, repair technique, expected outcome, or nature of damage), If may instead pay a lump-sum settlement. Age-based deductions apply to certain components (e.g. wheels, child seats, aftermarket audio/electronics). Compensation does not cover depreciation in vehicle value.
Theft Cover (Varkausturva)
Covered
Covers sudden and unforeseen direct property damage caused by theft, unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, or attempted theft, provided the vehicle or its lockable part was locked at the time of the event as per the locking requirements in clause 3.2.1, or stored in a locked facility inaccessible to outsiders. Redemption or replacement is conditional on the stolen vehicle not being found within 30 days of If being notified. Interior damage is only covered if the vehicle was properly locked. The policyholder must press charges against suspects. Deductible: EUR 200. Bonus does not decrease.
Glass Cover (Lasiturva)
Optional
Optional add-on available for both Full Casco (täyskasko) and Semi Casco (osakasko). Covers sudden and unforeseen breakage of windscreen, side windows, rear window, glass roof, or glass sunroof caused by a direct external impact (e.g. stone chip). Repair without replacement is free of charge (no deductible). When glass replacement is done at an If partner repair shop, deductible is EUR 200; otherwise EUR 300. Bonus does not decrease. Damage must be such that repair or replacement is necessary for road safety. Does not cover mirrors, light covers, damage not affecting road safety, or wear/scratches.
Natural Perils (within Collision Cover / Fire Cover)
Covered
Natural perils such as hailstorm, storm, and sudden rise of water level damaging a parked vehicle are covered under the Collision Cover (törmäysturva) and do not reduce the bonus. Lightning strike directly hitting the vehicle is covered under Fire Cover (paloturva). Damages caused by moisture, rain, frost, heat, or weight of ice/snow are explicitly excluded. During off-road registration periods, only sudden and unforeseen externally caused natural perils remain covered under Törmäysturva.
Malicious Damage Cover (Ilkivaltaturva)
Covered
Covers sudden and unforeseen direct property damage caused by intentional malicious acts (vandalism). Does not cover damage caused by another vehicle. Interior and theft-related damage is only covered if the vehicle was properly locked or stored in a guarded facility per clause 3.2.1. The policyholder must press charges against suspects. Deductible: EUR 200. Bonus does not decrease.
Towing and Travel Expenses (Hinaus ja matkakulut)
Covered
Covers towing to the nearest repair shop when a journey is interrupted in Finland due to vehicle failure, damage, flat tyre, or running off road. For pure electric private cars, covers towing to the nearest charging point. Additionally covers up to EUR 500 in total for: transport of driver and passengers to destination, extra costs for retrieving repaired vehicle, and other reasonable extra travel and accommodation costs. Abroad, towing to nearest repair shop is covered, plus up to EUR 2,000 (including max EUR 500 for vehicle storage) for return travel costs. When towing is ordered via If (if.fi/hinaus or 010 19 18 40 / +358 10 515 8777 abroad), no deductible applies. Otherwise, the deductible stated in the policy certificate is charged.
Replacement Vehicle Service (Sijaisautopalvelu)
Optional
Optional add-on available only with Full Casco (täyskasko). Covers rental car costs (compact class C vehicle) when: (1) a journey is interrupted in Finland due to vehicle failure, damage, or running off road; or (2) a parked vehicle in Finland suffers a casco-covered loss (fire, theft, collision). If the vehicle is not roadworthy, compensation starts from the time of journey interruption. If roadworthy but being repaired, compensation starts when repair begins at the workshop. Maximum 40 days for damage/theft, 7 days for technical failures. In theft cases up to 30 days; if redeemed, up to 14 days until replacement is acquired. Waiting time for parts covered up to 7 days. No deductible. Bonus does not decrease. For motorcycles, a daily flat rate of EUR 45 applies.
Personal Accident Cover / Driver & Passenger Injury (Henkilöturva)

Key conditions
driver_age_experience_limit
No minimum driver age is specified in the policy terms for coverage eligibility. However, the driver must hold a valid driving licence for the applicable vehicle category, a learner's permit, or an age-based right to drive. The insurance premium may be adjusted mid-term if a driver under 24 years of age uses the vehicle. Premium factors include, among others, the age of the policyholder, vehicle owner, keeper, and drivers.
repair_network_requirements
If retains the right to select the repair shop, towing company, or rental car provider. The policyholder must always contact If first before ordering any such service. If the service is obtained from a provider other than If's designated partner, costs are reimbursed only up to the amount that would have arisen from using If's designated provider. For glass repairs and replacements, If partner shops can be found at if.fi/tuulilasi; using a partner shop waives the elevated deductible on glass replacement.
territorial_scope
The casco insurance is valid throughout Europe and in Green Card agreement countries outside Europe, excluding Azerbaijan, Iran, Kosovo, Northern Cyprus, Morocco, Tunisia, Turkey, Belarus, Russia, and Nagorno-Karabakh. Not valid when the vehicle is rented to others or when it is held for sale by a dealership, company, or private party other than the registered owner/keeper. Outside the Nordic countries and Estonia, the deductible is doubled (except for glass cover and the abroad liability cover). The abroad liability cover is limited to trips of max 45 consecutive days in non-EEA Green Card countries.
anti_theft_requirements
For Theft Cover (varkausturva) to apply, the vehicle must be locked at the time of the incident: for enclosed-body vehicles, the cabin, doors, windows, and cargo space must be closed and locked, keys removed, and electronic immobiliser or steering lock engaged. Motorcycles, mopeds, quads, and snowmobiles must have keys removed and immobiliser/steering lock active, or be secured with a disc lock, wheel lock, chain and lock, or cable lock to a fixed object. Storing accessories (e.g. tyres) in a shared space requires them to be locked. Keys or key-equivalent devices must not be left in the vehicle, and must not be stored in visible or accessible unsecured locations.
claim_notification_deadline
The policyholder must report the damage to If without delay and provide all necessary information for investigation of the claim. If must be given the opportunity to inspect the damage. Claims should preferably be reported via Omat sivut (online self-service) or the If Mobiili app. For towing, roadside assistance, and glass repairs, If must be contacted before ordering services. For abroad liability cover, If must be notified immediately of any court proceedings.
deductible_rules
The deductible for the Collision Cover (törmäysturva) is chosen by the policyholder (e.g. EUR 200, 300, or 500). Other covers typically carry a EUR 200 deductible. Towing ordered via If carries no deductible. Glass repair (patching) carries no deductible; glass replacement at an If partner shop has a EUR 200 deductible, elsewhere EUR 300. Outside the Nordic countries and Estonia, the deductible is doubled (except for glass cover and abroad liability cover). When a private-individual policyholder has multiple policies covering the same event, only the highest single deductible is applied. Fire damage prevention/limitation costs are exempt from the deductible.
