You compare family personal accident insurance (gezinsongevallenverzekering) on figures set out in the policy conditions. With a.s.r., you choose an amount of € 25,000, € 50,000, € 75,000 or € 100,000 for permanent disability, plus € 5,000 to € 20,000 on death; for hospital admission following an accident the policy pays € 25 per day up to € 1,500. The ANWB accident insurance, underwritten by Unigarant, works with € 25,000 on death and up to € 75,000 for permanent disability, and gives single people a 40 per cent discount. Same product name, different building blocks.
Unlike our page on family personal accident insurance through Klaverblad, which explains a single policy, here we set out the differences between providers side by side. They lie in the body-part schedule (gliedertaxe), the age at which the insured sum is reduced, the position of students living away from home and the sports exclusions. a.s.r., for example, excludes ice hockey, speed skiing, combat sports, bungee jumping and accidents on a motorcycle over 50 cc for those under 23; a family with a motorcycling student or a child at a judo club needs to know this before taking out cover.
For your family, we request the policy conditions from several insurers and compare them on six points: the insured sums, the disability table, the end age and age-related reduction, cover for children living away from home, the sports and vehicle exclusions, and the additional sections. Only then do we look at the premium, which for a family is indicatively between € 8 and € 25 per month.
We compare your personal accident insurance across dozens of insurers, explain where the real differences lie, and arrange the switch from start to finish — without you having to chase it yourself.

Get coveredPolicies differ on measurable points for each section; these are the points we compare.
For permanent disability, compare the insured sum, the table per body part and the age at which the amount is reduced.
The death benefit is a fixed part of one policy and a low-value add-on in another.
Who counts determines whether a student living away from home or a new family member is actually covered after an accident.
What is covered
| Situation | Accidents | Liability |
|---|---|---|
| A single-person fall down the stairs at home | Yes | No |
| A sports injury caused by an accident | Sometimes | No |
| A collision in which someone else is at fault | Yes | No |
| You cause damage to someone else | No | Yes |
| Illness, occupational disease or gradual injury | No | No |
| Hazardous sports not declared | No | No |
This overview is general in nature and is not personal advice. What is actually covered, including exclusions, limits and the excess, is set out in the policy conditions and the insurance card (verzekeringskaart) of the insurer; you receive both before you take out cover.

Four points on which family personal accident policies differ most in practice.
The disability benefit is a percentage of the insured sum according to a table in the policy conditions. Loss of an arm is rated at 75 per cent by one insurer and at 80 per cent by another, as in Centraal Beheer's worked example. With partial loss of function, that percentage is reduced proportionally, and a progressive policy multiplies serious injuries above a threshold. Two policies with € 100,000 insured can therefore differ by tens of thousands of euros for a spinal cord injury. Ask for the table before you compare on premium.
With a.s.r., children living away from home remain covered as long as they are in full-time education or on an internship, including abroad, provided they are registered in the Netherlands. Not every insurer is this generous. At the same time, a.s.r. excludes accidents on a motorcycle over 50 cc for insured persons under 23, as well as ice hockey, speed skiing, combat sports and bungee jumping or abseiling without supervision. A family with a student child who rides a motorcycle or practises a combat sport should therefore compare on the exclusions first and only then on the amounts.
Insurers reduce the insured sums at older ages: Centraal Beheer halves them once you turn 70, other providers choose a different threshold or end the cover. For grandparents still on the family policy or for an older single person, that is a significant difference. On the other hand, some insurers give a discount on the family premium for smaller households, such as 40 per cent for single people with ANWB. Compare the policy on your current household composition and on your situation ten years from now.
Besides disability and death, insurers offer extra sections with their own limits. a.s.r. pays € 25 per day for hospital admission following an accident, up to € 1,500 per accident, and offers additional cover for high-risk occupational activities. Other policies add dental costs for children or reimbursement of the health insurance excess. These sections cost extra premium and sometimes overlap with your health or travel insurance. Only include what fills a gap and compare the maximums per section.
Questions from families comparing personal accident insurance.
The premium depends on the household composition, the chosen sums and the additional sections; insurers do not publish fixed amounts online. As an indication, a family pays between € 8 and € 25 per month, with € 100,000 for disability plus a daily allowance costing considerably more than € 25,000 without extras. Single people get a substantial discount with some providers, such as 40 per cent with ANWB. We work out several options for you.
For permanent disability, the choices at the major providers range from € 25,000 to € 100,000; a.s.r. offers four steps within that range, ANWB a single amount of € 75,000. On death, € 5,000 to € 25,000 is usual. The disability sum is the most important, because it has to cover home adaptations, care and loss of income that no other insurance covers. Choose that sum based on your mortgage, income and own savings buffer.
That varies by insurer and is an important point of comparison. With a.s.r., children living away from home who are in full-time education or on an internship remain covered, including abroad, as long as they are listed in the Dutch population register. Other policies apply a maximum age or require registration at your address. A child who moves abroad to study and deregisters then falls outside the cover.
Every policy excludes dangerous sports, but the list varies. a.s.r. lists ice hockey, speed skiing, combat sports, bungee jumping and abseiling without supervision, speed competitions with motor vehicles and riding a motorcycle over 50 cc under the age of 23. Alcohol, drugs and medication misuse are excluded everywhere, as are intent and acts of war or civil unrest. If a family member practises a sport on such a list, compare on exactly that point, or ask for additional acceptance.
With many insurers, the insured sums are reduced at a certain age or the cover ends. Centraal Beheer halves the amounts once you turn 70; other providers use 75 or a premium loading. It is precisely at older ages that the risk of permanent injury after a fall is higher, so when comparing, look at the age arrangement and not just at today's premium.
No, those group policies only apply during club activities or school hours and the journey there, with modest amounts. Family personal accident insurance applies 24 hours a day, worldwide, so also at home, on holiday and in traffic. Because they are fixed-benefit insurance, both pay out side by side for an accident during training. The accident section on a mobility scooter or car policy also partly overlaps; avoid paying premium twice.
