Making a claim
If you have suffered an injury and believe you are entitled to compensation, you can submit a claim to PIAB. This page aims to provide you with information on how to do that.
You can make a claim either using our online form or using the print paper claim forms here.
The PIAB process involves a number of steps, commencing with filling out a claim application online or completing and sending a paper claim form to us by post along with a copy of your medical report and processing fee. This website also provides information on how to make a claim As Gaeilge, or through other languages and links to that information are here.
The fee for applications which use paper or email is €90. The fee for using the online form is €45.
This PIAB process also involves us notifying the respondent (the person or organisation who you are making a claim against, or their insurers).

PIAB may also arrange to have an independent medical examination carried out before making an assessment of your claim.
