What is out-of-home coverage?
With an exterior cover, your belongings are not only insured indoors, but also outdoors. This covers damage caused by theft, for example. Please note: this cover is only intended for items that are actually used outside such as: a video camera, mobile phone and sports equipment. A couch for example, is not insured with this coverage.
Is an exterior cover additional to my household insurance?
It differs per insurer whether this coverage is included in the contents insurance. Because more and more portable electronic items will be added in the future and this will become more normal, insurers will increasingly offer this coverage as an extra option. For you, this means that you will pay more premium for this extra coverage.
There may always be exclusions to this cover. It is therefore important that you always read the conditions of your cover. It happens quite often that mobile phones are excluded. It is also useful to check what the coverage area is. Does the coverage only apply to the Netherlands or worldwide?
Is theft from my car insured?
It depends on the insurer with whom you have taken out your exterior cover. One insurer will pay for the damage of theft from your car, another will not. You can read about this in the conditions of your insurance policy. In general, when insurers insure this damage, you must have a higher excess. In addition, the burglary must always be demonstrable. For example, you can take photos of the burglary.
