What is a TAC Claim?
A TAC claim is an insurance claim made if you are injured in a transport accident in Victoria. The Transport Accident Commission (TAC) is a no-fault insurance scheme owned by the Victorian Government. This means you can make a claim regardless of who caused the accident. The TAC charge, paid as part of vehicle registration, funds this scheme. If your claim is accepted, the TAC helps cover medical and related expenses for your injuries. We know how traumatic it can be in this situation, our caring staff are trained to make your visit as comfortable and stress-free as possible. We are here to help you along the way.
