When you take out a van insurance policy with Budget Insurance, as part of our general policy conditions you will be required to conform to our five main obligations.
The obligations form part of your insurance contract and the insurer will only provide you with the cover detailed in the policy document providing that you and the other drivers comply with the conditions.
Please see below a brief overview of the five obligations. You can find out more about them in your policy documents.
Obligation 1 – taking care of your van
- Your van should be kept in a roadworthy condition
- Your van should have a current MOT certificate, if applicable
- You should take all reasonable care to make sure you protect your van against loss or damage
Obligation 2 – your duty to disclose information

- You must tell us about any changes to your personal details as soon as you can
Obligation 3 – accidents and claims

- You should tell us if you or any insured driver receives a notification of a prosecution, an inquest or a fatal accident enquiry
