How does CTP insurance work in Hobart and do I need to arrange it separately from my car registration?

A SureCover Team Answered by

In Hobart, Tasmania’s compulsory third party (CTP) cover is linked to your vehicle registration and is administered by the Motor Accidents Insurance Board (MAIB), rather than being purchased as a separate policy from a private insurer. It generally covers eligible injuries resulting from motor vehicle accidents, but it does not cover damage to cars or other property. You’ll need to keep your registration current to maintain the required cover. Check the MAIB or Service Tasmania website for current details, including claims information and limits.
