| Disclosures of auditors report [text block] | INTRODUCTIONWe have reviewed the accompanying interim condensed statement of financial position of Salama Cooperative Insurance Company (A Saudi Joint Stock Company) (the “Company”) as at 31 March 2021, and the related interim condensed statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the three month period then ended, and notes to the interim condensed financial statements. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these interim condensed financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 - "Interim Financial Reporting" (IAS 34) as endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these interim condensed financial statements based on our review |
| Contents of auditors report [abstract] | |
| Nature of auditors opinion | Qualified opinion |
| Auditors opinion | Based on our review, except for the effects of the matters described in the basis of qualified conclusion paragraph mentioned above, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim condensed financial information is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” as endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. |
| Basis of opinion | As stated in Note 8 and 10 to the interim condensed financial statements, the Company has other payables balance of SR 18.4 million as of 31 March 2021 and other receivables balance of SR 15.1 million as of 31 December 2020 respectively, which represent accounting system processing differences related to the insurance operations due to the difficulties in the implementation of the new IT system, which has been escalated to the upper management of the IT system developer. In addition to that, the excess of loss expenses were resulted in credit during this quarter instead of debit balances. We were unable to obtain sufficient appropriate evidence in respect of the other payables and other receivables balance. In light of the above, we were unable to determine whether any adjustments to other payables and other receivables were required and we were unable to determine the possible impact on the financial statements for the period ended 31 March 2021. |

| Disclosure of new standards and amendments in standards [text block] | a. New IFRS Standards, IFRIC interpretations and amendments thereof, adopted by the CompanyThe following new standards, amendments and revisions to existing standards, which were issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) have been effective from 1 January 2021 and accordingly adopted by the Company, as applicable:Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Phase 2: Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 The amendments provide temporary reliefs which address the financial reporting effects when an interbank offered rate (IBOR) is replaced with an alternative nearly risk-free interest rate (RFR). The amendments include the following practical expedients: A practical expedient to require contractual changes, or changes to cash flows that are directly required by the reform, to be treated as changes to a floating interest rate, equivalent to a movement in a market rate of interest Permit changes required by IBOR reform to be made to hedge designations and hedge documentation without the hedging relationship being discontinued Provide temporary relief to entities from having to meet the separately identifiable requirement when an RFR instrument is designated as a hedge of a risk component. These amendments had no impact on the interim condensed financial statements of the Company. The Company intends to use the practical expedients in future periods if they become applicableAmendments to IFRS 16: COVID-19-Related Rent Concessions beyond 30 June 2021In March 2021, the IASB amended IFRS 16 Leases, extending the practical expedient in order to permit lessees to apply it to rent concessions for which reductions in lease payments affect payments originally due on or before 30 June 2022. This amendment is applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2021, with early application permitted, including in financial statements not authorized for issue at 31 March 2021.The Company, being a lessee, did not receive any rent concession during the current period and accordingly not affected by this amendment | |
| Disclosure of issued IFRS not yet adopted [text block] | Standards issued but not yet effective Key standards issued but not yet effective up to the date of issuance of the Company’s interim condensed financial statements are listed below. The Company intends to adopt these standards when they become effective.Standard / Interpretation Description Effective from periods beginning on or after the following date IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts See note belowIFRS 9 Financial Instruments See note belowIFRS 17 – Insurance Contracts OverviewThis standard has been published on 18 May 2017, it establishes the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of insurance contracts and supersedes IFRS 4 – Insurance contracts. The new standard applies to insurance contracts issued, to all reinsurance contracts and to investment contracts with discretionary participating features provided the entity also issues insurance contracts. It requires to separate the following components from insurance contracts: i) embedded derivatives, if they meet certain specified criteria;ii) distinct investment components; andiii) any promise to transfer distinct goods or non-insurance services. These components should be accounted for separately in accordance with the related standards (IFRS 9 and IFRS 15). Measurement In contrast to the requirements in IFRS 4, which permitted insurers to continue to use the accounting policies for measurement purposes that existed prior to January 2015, IFRS 17 provides the following different measurement models: The General model is based on the following “building blocks”: a) the fulfilment cash flows (FCF), which comprise: probability-weighted estimates of future cash flows, an adjustment to reflect the time value of money (i.e. discounting) and the financial risks associated with those future cash flows, and a risk adjustment for non-financial risk; b) the Contractual Service Margin (CSM). The CSM represents the unearned profit for a group of insurance contracts and will be recognized as the entity provides services in the future. The CSM cannot be negative at inception; any net negative amount of the fulfilment cash flows at inception will be recorded in profit or loss immediately. At the end of each subsequent reporting period the carrying amount of a group of insurance contracts is remeasured to be the sum of: the liability for remaining coverage, which comprises the FCF related to future services and the CSM of the group at that date; and the liability for incurred claims, which is measured as the FCF related to past services allocated to the group at that date. | |
| Disclosure of critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions, general [text block] | The preparation of interim condensed financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.In preparing these interim condensed financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies, and the key sources of estimation uncertainty including the risk management policies, were the same as those that applied to the annual financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2020. However, the Company has reviewed the key sources of estimation uncertainties disclosed in the last annual financial statements against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic. Management is unable at this time to reasonably quantify the estimation uncertainties as disclosed in note 21 to these interim condensed financial statements. Management will continue to assess the situation, and reflect any required changes in future reporting periods |
