About the excess, insurance and rental conditions
Read and be informed about the terms and conditions of our company before taking any other action
When it comes to car rental abroad, the term excess is sometimes a little confusing. An excess is the maximum amount that a client who rents a car is at risk of losing. For example:
If the amount of damage is more than the excess, then the cost of the damage is covered by the insurance company.
If the amount of damage is more than the excess, then the cost of the damage above the amount of excess is covered by the insurance company.
If the amount of damage is equal to or less than the amount of the excess, then all damage is covered by the insured (renter)
The excess is the amount that the client risks losing, but only in the event of an insured event.
TPI, CDW, EDW
and other three-letter words
TPI – Third Party Insurance
Minimum insurance required by law. It protects against damages to the third-party by the insured vehicle. Which includes costs that arise as a result of injuries caused to other people and damage to their vehicles.
CDW – Collision Damage Waiver
CDW (Collision Damage Waiver) is the main type of motor insurance against collision damage that can be caused by the fault of the driver. This type of insurance covers all damage to the vehicle, except for damage to the windscreen, wheels, tyres and the bottom of the car.
EDW – Extra Damage Waiver
EDW or LDW (Loss Damage Waiver) is a more advanced insurance, that is, any damage that includes CDW, plus damage to tyres, windows and the bottom of the car.
SCDW – Super CDW
SCDW insurance for a rented car against damage in an accident. SCDW insurance includes EDW and THW. SCDW protects you from having to pay anything if you hire car is damaged or stolen, with no deductible.
Special cases exceeding the excess
In the following situations, the rental company will have the
legal right to recover the full amount of damage from the client:
– if the car was stolen due to the fault of the driver (temporary owner);
– if the driver becomes a participant in an accident while drink/drug-driving.
