Community insurance in Portugal: Understand everything in 6 questions

A condominium is exposed every day to multiple risks that require urgent and necessary services to deal with them. It is therefore important to subscribe community insurance in Portugal, here called "seguro de condominio", for the peace of mind of all neighbours. If you want to know more, read our article!

 

What does the condominium insurance cover?

Condominium insurance is insurance that protects the common areas of a building. It is used to cover damage to the building and the civil liability of the condominium.

Is this insurance compulsory in Portugal?

It is compulsory to have fire insurance, both for the independent parts and for the common parts of the co-ownership.

Does the Community insurance cover my flat?

No, the "seguro de condominio" insurance does not cover damage to your flat. For this, you will need to take out a home insurance policy. Don't hesitate to request a home insurance quote by clicking here.

The condominium insurance will cover damage to the common areas. Your home insurance will cover damage to your own appartment.

Is water damage covered by this insurance?

Most Portuguese insurance companies include water damage caused by collective pipes in their basic cover.

What are the main coverages of this insurance?

The main guarantees are as follows:

  • Civil liability: for damage that may be caused to third parties (e.g. slippery stairs, fall of a part of the roof that causes damage to a third party, etc.).
  • Material damage : such as fire, explosion, lightning, atmospheric or seismic phenomena.
  • Water damage
  • Assistance for condominiums: most insurance companies include a 24-hour assistance service, 365 days a year
  • Unclogging of communal pipes
  • Glass breakage in common areas
  • Defence/legal assistance


Who should take out condominium insurance?

All co-owners must take out co-ownership insurance ("Condominio" insurance).

How much does the "seguro de condominio" cost?

The insurance premium varies depending on the optional cover included but it can vary between 50 and 100 euros per year and per accommodation.
