Report a Claim

If an incident occurs at your entity that may result in a claim, be sure to report it to your local agent and the NDIRF Claims Department as soon as possible.

Remember, if your covered auto or equipment repair comp estimates are $3,000 or less, you can get immediate repair authorization and quick repair payments using our Quick Pay Comp Claim form. Click the Quick Pay Comp Claim button below to get started. 

To report an NDIRF liability, auto, or public assets claim:

Your agent will complete and submit a loss/incident report (below) and all pertinent claim documentation to NDIRFClaims@ndirf.com.
