Virginia Surety Company, Inc

Protecta Insurance is a New Zealand owned and operated company that is totally focused on providing our customers with the best value products, benefits and customer service.

Established in 1986, we started trading in 1987 and since then we’ve been helping tens of thousands of Kiwis with their insurance needs every year.

Protecta is heavily involved in all areas of the finance and insurance industry. We are members and participants of both the Financial Services Federation and (through our underwriter Virginia Surety Company) Insurance and Financial Services Ombudsman who are an independent External Complaints Resolution provider.




We also believe in giving back to the community, and have provided sponsorship to causes such as the Westpac Rescue Helicopter Trust, various motorcycle charity rides, club championships, teams, and events throughout the country.

Our underwriter is Virginia Surety Company, Inc. (NZ Company No 920 655) of Unit 3, Level 2, 73 Manchester Street, Christchurch 8011, New Zealand.

Protecta has specialised in providing insurance for New Zealand motorists for over 30 years. Our policies have evolved to include features and benefits you won’t get from “the big guys”.
We are located right here in NZ and staffed by Kiwis who are enthusiasts in all forms of motoring. We’re Kiwi owned and operated, and proud of it!

Whatever your vehicle is, we’ve got the policy to cover it and the people who understand it.
