Damage without a third party involved

Have you incurred damage to your vehicle without involving a third party? If you are still able to continue driving, you can easily report this single-sided damage using the KINTO app.

When filling out the claim form, it’s important to accurately describe how the damage occurred and include photos of the damage and the situation. We will contact you to discuss the next steps.

Damage involving a third party

If another party is involved in the damage, ensure the road is clear, find a safe place, and complete the European claim form together with the other party (found in the glove box). Afterward, send a copy or photo of both sides of the document, along with photos of the damage and the situation, via the KINTO app.

It’s crucial to accurately describe how the damage occurred on the claim form and include photos for our review.

What to do in case of misappropriation or theft

In the event of misappropriation or theft, it is important to report it to the police as soon as possible. If you witness it happening on the spot, call 112 immediately. In other cases, contact the local police.

Then, inform our customer service during business hours. If we are closed, please send us an email, and we will get back to you as soon as possible to assist you further.

Damage with counterparty

Is there a third party involved in the damage? Clear the road, find a safe location, and complete a European accident report together with the third party (this can be found in the glove compartment). Then, send a photo of both the front and back of the form, along with photos of the damage, via the KINTO app. More on our accidents and damage page for assistance.

It is important to describe the cause of the damage in as much detail as possible on the accident report. Also, include photos of the damage and the situation, as this can help establish liability. We will then forward the damage report and photos to the claims handler, who will work with the other party’s insurer to determine fault.

Damage without counterparty

Is there only damage to your vehicle and/or is there no third party involved? Can you still drive? If yes, you can easily report this one-party damage to us via the KINTO app.

You should report all damage, whether large or small, to us immediately. Damages that do not prevent you from driving, like scratches or dents, can be reported using the KINTO app. You can upload photos of the damage right away so we can assess its severity and discuss an appropriate solution with you. If you’ve been in an accident and cannot continue driving, please refer to our accidents and damage page for assistance.
