Italy Car Rental Insurance

Car rental insurance protects you from any liability that results in death, injury to others or any property damage that is caused while you are driving a rental car in Italy.

In Italy, the law requires that you must carry certain types of insurances: Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection. For your convenience, Auto Europe's rates in Italy include these insurances, as well as fire and third-party liability insurance in order to limit your financial risk in case of an accident or theft. Although a popular option in other European countries, very few credit cards with car rental insurance offer coverage in Italy, making it a necessity to be sure you are properly covered ahead of time.

Why Buy Car Rental Insurance in Italy with Auto Europe

Purchasing zero-excess CDW and Theft Protection insurance coverage with Auto Europe will cost you less than purchasing generic CDW and Theft Protection coverage at the counter. On top of that, with zero-excess insurance your out-of-pocket deductible is $0 in the unfortunate circumstance you are in a collision or your car is stolen. With generic coverage purchased at the counter you have a higher daily rate and will then have to pay a deductible on top of that. Auto Europe's zero-excess insurance saves you money over generic coverage and eliminates the risk of a high deductible payment.
