Certificate of Motor Insurance and Uber
Choosing the correct insurance
If you’d like to deliver with Uber Eats using a car, motorbike or scooter, you’ll need a Certificate of Motor Insurance (which covers food delivery, or hire and reward not excluding food delivery).
A delay in renewing and uploading insurance documents to your Uber account will delay your ability to go online.
Choosing your insurer
While you’re free to choose your insurance provider, the companies below offer flexible options including hourly, monthly and annual policies, and automatically upload your insurance certificate directly to your Uber account.
This means that if you do choose to purchase an insurance policy from one of these insurance providers, you won’t need to manually upload any insurance documents to your Uber account - the insurance provider will take care of that for you.
