How can I fill an accident report

Tips to fill in the amicable accident report

  • Get safe

    If, at the time of the accident it is not possible to fill in the amicable report, it can be agreed with the other party to fill it in later (always note down the registration number and telephone number).

  • Data to note

    Save the data of those involved: license plate, telephone number, name, etc.

  • Complete the accident report

    Write the details in capital letters. The more details you provide the better.

  • Do not sign an empty amicable report nor if you do not agree with what has been filled in

  • Always keep a copy of the amicable report, whoever is responsible for the accident.

  • Once it has been filled in and signed, it should not be rectified, nor should information be rubbed out or added.

  • Take photos of the accident

    If possible, take photos of the accident and of the damage to the vehicles.

 

How to fill in an amicable accident report step by step

 

  1. Date and place of the accident

    Indicate the date and place of the accident (if it is a road, the name and the km; if it is a crossroad, the two streets and the town).

  2. Other damage and injuries

    Indicate in these sections whether people have been injured in the accident, even if they have only been slightly injured, and whether damage exists other than to the vehicles.

  3. Witnesses

    Note down their name and telephone number in this section you may need them.

  4. Details of the insured party and affected vehicle

    In this section, each driver must choose column A or B and provide the largest amount of details possible regarding both vehicles. It is essential to indicate: vehicle brand, model, registration number and insurer.

  5. Damage, observations and sketch

    Mark the point of the collision and the damage caused in the accident. Do a simple sketch which reflects how the accident occurred, identifying vehicles A and B and the movement of each one with arrows. Add observations that help to understand the way in which the accident occurred.

  6. Circumstances

    This section is very important, since it sets forth what occurred. In this section, each driver must mark with an X the boxes that explain the manoeuvres that led to the accident. Driver A will mark the boxes of their side and driver B those of their side. If none of the circumstances describes the way in which the accident occurred, do not mark any and write in “Observations” how the accident occurred.

  7. Signatures

    It is important, for the report to be valid, that it is signed by both parties involved. Sign it only if you agree with what has been filled in.

  8. Notify the claim as soon as possible

The answer to all your questions

In an amicable accident report, there is no main driver nor guilty party identified in advance. Sections A and B simply serve to differentiate the two vehicles involved in the accident.

Hence, any of the drivers may appear as A or B, provided that the details of each vehicle, driver and insurer are filled in correctly in the corresponding section. The important thing is that both drivers agree with the information reflected before signing the report.

f the other driver does not wish to sign the amicable report, endeavour to include all possible information about the accident, such as the vehicle registration number, the driver’s details, photographs of the damage and the place in which the events occurred, together with any details of possible witnesses.

Afterwards, notify the claim to your insurer as soon as possible so it can help you with the dealings. The fact that one of the parties has not signed the report does not prevent you from declaring the accident.

We recommend that you notify the accident and send us the amicable report as soon as possible. As a general rule, the claim must be declared in a maximum period of seven days from the date on which it occurred or you learned of it.

If you still do not have the amicable accident report, you can also notify the accident so that we can begin to manage it as soon as possible.

It is important to review all the information before signing the amicable report. Once signed by both drivers, the document reflects the version of events accepted by the parties.

If you detect an error or need to provide additional information after signing, notify your insurer as soon as possible so it can assess the situation and take into account the complementary information during the management of the claim.

Yes. The amicable report can be used both if the accident involves a foreign car or takes place outside of Spain. Its function is to clearly collect information on the accident, details of the vehicles involved and the circumstances in which the accident took place.

In these cases, it is especially important to check that the vehicle’s details, the registration plate and the insurer are correctly filled in. Once completed, you must notify the claim to your insurer so it can indicate the steps to be followed and manage the claim.
