Before renting a car, it’s important to understand what’s included in the base price and what may cost extra. This way, you can avoid unexpected fees and plan your budget accordingly.

What’s usually included:

✅ Basic Insurance (CDW)

Usually included and covers partial damage in case of an accident. May come with a deductible (excess).

✅ Mileage limit or unlimited mileage

Some plans offer a daily limit (e.g., 200 km/day). Extra kilometers are charged separately.

✅ Roadside assistance

Basic breakdown help is commonly included.

✅ VAT and taxes

Most companies include all taxes in the displayed rental price.

What may cost extra:

💸 Full insurance with zero deductible

Optional coverage to remove renter’s responsibility completely.

💸 Additional driver

Adding a second driver may come with an extra fee.

💸 Child seat, GPS, Wi-Fi, etc.

Optional accessories are usually charged separately.

💸 Vehicle delivery/pick-up

If you need the car delivered or returned to a location other than the office, it may cost extra.

💸 Deposit (security hold)

A deposit is blocked on your card and released after the vehicle is returned.

Tip: Always double-check what’s included in your plan and read the contract carefully.
