Expert Report for Vehicle Depreciation

Learn how to get an expert report for your vehicle depreciation claim. Complete guide covering authorized companies, costs, and step-by-step process.

Short answer

An expert appraisal evaluates the pre-accident market value, damage type (paint, sheet metal, chassis), repair quality, make/model/age and prior-damage history. Records of the Insurance Information Center (SBM) and TRAMER provide objective grounding. If the insurer's report is rejected, the court appoints an independent expert; conflicting reports trigger a panel expert review.

What is an Expert Report?

An expert report (ekspertiz raporu) is a technical document prepared by authorized companies that determines the extent of damage and depreciation value of your vehicle after an accident. This document is crucial for insurance claims and court cases.

The report includes detailed assessment of damage, repair costs, and the resulting loss in market value. Courts and insurance companies rely heavily on these reports when determining compensation amounts.

Important Timing

Expert report should ideally be obtained before vehicle repair for the most accurate damage assessment. If repairs have already been done, bring all repair invoices and before/after photos.
