Third Party Insurance

Main Content

In most countries, except for USA, this insurance policy is mandatory and therefore is included in the framework of the CDW insurance as required by the laws of that country.

Third-party insurance included in car rental agreements in the US provides only minimal coverage for the car renter or additional drivers listed in the car rental agreement. Therefore, we recommend that you pay attention to the inclusion of an insurance supplement in your rental plan.
This supplement is called EP - Extended Protection and is sometimes also called SLI - Supplement Liability Insurance, ALI - Additional Liability Insurance.

In the US, the costs of compensation in claims tend to be particularly high, so it is desirable that this coverage provide an excess as high as possible. Ofran operates in the US with Alamo and National, which offer EP coverage of up to 1,000,000 USD.

The car rental deal does not include medical insurance and / or bodily injury or property insurance, for the driver, any additional driver and / or passengers in the renal car, including as a result of road accidents that may be caused using the leased vehicle. You should, therefore, purchase such insurance coverage, independently and in accordance with the appropriate insurance coverage conditions.

In car rentals in Canada and the rest of the world, third party insurance is included in the CDW insurance. (for more information about CDW)

In addition, in certain jurisdictions (e.g., South Africa), the coverage proposed to be included in such insurance may contain various limitations prescribed by local law (such as: limitations on the account of coverage, the coverable events and more).Therefore, we recommend that you separately purchase an appropriate insurance coverage to meet your needs, or alternatively verify with the Car Supplier, at the time of picking up the car, which additional insurance coverages are offered by it for such purpose.

A prerequisite for the insurance coverage is that for any damage caused to the car during the rental period, the renter shall immediately notify both the local police and the car supplier, shall keep documents attesting thereto and shall act according to their instructions.


Ofran wishes you a safe and pleasant trip.
