Insurance For Car Rentals In Dubai

Posted by Kelvin Geoff on April 6th, 2021

In UAE the car rental companies have to include insurance for the coverage of any damage. This is a rule enforced by law. The insurance amount is included in the car rental. They may choose any one of the different types of insurances which vary according to the coverage they provide.

There are four types of insurances that are available with car rentals.

There can be a type of coverage that provides any coverage for any damage caused to the third party for which they will claim a charge. Regardless of the whether the accident was caused due to the rental car’s fault or not, they may claim that you have to pay for any personal injury caused to them or for any damage to their vehicle. If the rental car is covered with the liability insurance cover such liabilities will be paid by the insurance company. There are few things that have to be considered –like what type of vehicle is actually covered.

Any damage or injury caused to the person renting the car is covered by the insurance company if there is coverage for personal accident. This includes cost involved in medical bills band ambulance, or even death benefit in case of an accident.

One type of coverage will also pay for thefts. The value of anything in the car that gets stolen gets covered by this type of insurance. There is however a limit to the amount payable for the loss.

There is one more type of coverage, which is more like a waiver than covering loss by making a payment. This is called collision damage waiver. Because of this if the rented car gets stolen or has an accident causing damage to the car the person who rented the car do not have to pay for the loss.

When renting a car from a car rental company in Dubai, make sure you ask them in details about the insurances available and the details of the coverage provided.

You should also check with your credit card company whether your credit card has any coverage for car rentals. Many credit cards provide insurances. Many do not. Even the coverage that is provided may not cover everything that is required. If the coverage is not there you may choose the coverage that is more comprehensive from the car rental company in Dubai from where you rent the car. If you find that certain area of coverage is not required as your credit card company has it, you can pick the one that is not covered by your credit card.

Renting a car in Dubai is very easy. You can rent it online. But as a tourist you would rather opt for a self driven car rental so that you can easily cover long distances without much hassle.
