How Do I Get A QBE Green Slip In New South Wales?

Whether it goes by the name Green Slip, or CTP, third-party insurance is mandatory across Australia. Each state works a little differently in terms of the checks and regulations that apply. In New South Wales, you can choose from six different insurers to supply your Green Slip insurance and QBE is one of them. Founded in 1886, they are one of the largest insurers in Australia. Note: you need to buy your Green Slip insurance before you register your vehicle.

What’s The Difference Between The Different Companies?

All Green Slip policies offer the same level of protection, but some insurance companies may offer additional cover at an extra cost.

No Fault Green Slip Insurance

New South Wales operates a “no fault” system, whereby all injured people are covered regardless of blame. This opens up the option of claiming benefits if you are unable to work, for a period of up to 26 weeks.
