Information Required for Public Liability Insurance Quote

By Sam Taylor-Smith


A public liability insurance quote will enable you to price out premiums from various insurance providers. To get started, you will have to complete questions regarding your company, including the following: number of employees, type of business, and further details concerning your business activities.

The most general information required for a qoute includes the following:

1. Indicate your business type.

2. Clearly describing your business and indicating whether it is a limited liability company, sole proprietorship or a partnership.

3. Indicating your estimated annual revenues of your business, for example the gross amount of receivables in respect to sales and services provided to your clients.

4. Indicate whether there are any existing claims or past incidents which could lead to a claim. If yes, then the dates, circumstances and amounts of those claims will have to be provided.

5. Indicate whether you carry out work in a commercial or industrial zone apart from your office or shops.

6. Indicate whether there are any subsidiary companies which have to be included.

7. Indicate the liability coverage wanted out of public liability or product liability. If damage is borne by a third party or a third party's assets on your premises, this is covered under public liability. Product liability comes into play if a product of yours causes damage to a third party.

8. Indicate the maximum no. of workers so that the insurer can calculate the premium. The no. of directors/partners, employee strength, no. of clerical partners and clerical employees, all need to be specified.

9. Indicating whether there have been any claims or incidents relating to occupational conditions, such as asbestos related illnesses, deafness, lung cancer, etc. is also commonly asked on your liability insurance quote application.

10. You will also be asked to indicate the date you want your coverage to begin. The majority of insurance providers will only be able to give you quotes based on your coverage beginning within a 30 day period.
