Australian Automobile Association Home Support Program for Service Partners

The combined Automobile Clubs / Associations under the banner of the Australian Automobile Association have developed a program to provide eligible partners (spouse or de facto) of Australian Service personnel with motoring protection and related services while the member is deployed in support of any Australian Government commitment overseas. Constituent members are:

*NRMA *RACV *RACQ *RAASA *RACWA *RACT *AANT *RACA

The services available and the cost involved varies according to whether the eligible partner and/or the nominated vehicle is a member of a state Automobile Club / Association:

  • Category 1: If the eligible partner and/or the nominated car is not currently a member and joins as an
    ordinary member now:
    ~ no entrance fee will apply
    ~ for the cost of a 12 month subscription, the term will be extended to 18 months
    ~ eligible partner is entitled to all membership services, including road service,
    ~ 20% discount on any extra assistance services provided during the extra 6 month term

  • Category 2: The eligible partner may accept a free non-motoring membership for a 6 month term. This provides access to all member services EXCEPT road service. No voting rights apply. If the eligible partner requires road side assistance during the 6 months, then they will be allowed to join on the road without payment of the normal penalty fee.
  • Category 3: If the eligible partner and/or the nominated vehicle is currently a member, the Automobile Clubs / Associations will extend the membership expiry date for a further 6 months without charge. The eligible partner will be entitled to the same 20% discount on any extra assistance services on the same terms as Category 1.

One free pre-travel inspection will be provided on the eligible partners vehicle for all three categories

In the event that the membership term expires while the service member is still deployed, arrangements can be made to extend the membership for a further 6 month period.
