A Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) (also known as a serial number) is a 17 character code of letters and numbers that identifies your vehicle. You can find your VIN in several places:
- On top of the dashboard on the driver’s side
- Inside the driver’s side door
- On forms such as your bill of sale, registration card, and/or vehicle permit
When you are entering your VIN, keep in mind the following:
- OA VIN never has the letters I, O, or Q
- The last five characters will always be numbers
- Some characters may look similar, such as: S & 5, D & 0, B & 8, G & 6, U & V, Z & 2
All customers may contact us by chat or phone. Please indicate your policy number, as well as your newly acquired vehicle's VIN, and the name and address of the company handling your lease or financing (if applicable).
The option to purchase $2 million in Third Party Liability Coverage is an excellent choice available to protect you and your family against the cost of damages you may be liable for. For instance, if you are covered for $1 million liability, and if there is a settlement against you for more than $1 million, your insurance will only cover $1 million of the settlement - you'll be responsible for any additional amount.

This is an optional cover that is available in most areas subject to eligibility.
Yes. You may want home, condo, tenant, cottage or rental insurance. There are different types of cover available in each category. There are also "add-on" features, depending on your personal circumstances. You'll want to consider how much insurance you need, and the deductible too (your portion of an insured loss), as this will affect your premiums.
Your Service Specialist can help you consider the options and pick the one that's right for you.
Your insurance should at least cover:
- The cost to rebuild your home (often different from its market value — Guaranteed Replacement Cost coverage is available to protect you if the cost to rebuild is underestimated)
- The cost to replace your personal property
- Protection against liability claims
Need help?
Your Service Specialist can help you estimate how much coverage you need. They will also help you decide on the type of coverage you need and the deductible (your portion of an insured loss).

Coverage can be purchased regardless of health status. Our policy provides coverage for pre-existing medical conditions as long as the stability requirement, where applicable, is met prior to booking your trip for trip cancellation, or prior to your date of departure for emergency medical coverage and trip interruption and delay. In most cases, MEDOC® Travel Insurance requires 90 days of stability for pre-existing medical conditions. For additional information about the stability requirement specific to your policy, please speak to one of our agents.
Stable means any medical condition or related condition (including any heart condition and/or lung condition), other than a minor ailment, for which all of the following statements are true:
- there has been no new diagnosis, new treatment or new prescribed medication;
- there has been no change in treatment or change in prescribed medication (including the amount of medication to be taken, how often it is to be taken, the type of medication or changes in treatment frequency or type); Exception: i) the routine adjustment of Coumadin or Warfarin, insulin or oral medications to control diabetes, (as long as it is not newly prescribed or stopped); or ii) a change from a brand name medication to a generic brand medication (provided the dosage is not modified);
- there has been no new symptom, more frequent symptom or more severe symptom experienced;
- there has been no test result showing a deterioration;
- there has been no hospitalization or referral to a specialist (made or recommended) and there is no further investigation for which results are pending.
With MEDOC®, you don’t have to worry about not qualifying for coverage because you’ve reached a certain age . If you are concerned about your coverage in relation to your age, do not hesitate to contact us by phone at 1.866.606.3362 or by email at [email protected]
Yes, you can extend your coverage after the date of departure from your province of residence. You must contact us prior to your coverage lapsing and one of our agents will be able to assist you. Please note that there may be a premium adjustment. In case you have already experienced a claim during your trip or believe you have reason to submit a claim, please allow at least 3 business days prior to your coverage lapsing, as your file will need to be reviewed and approval received, prior to an extension request being granted.3
