Domestic (United States) rentals under the booking code include loss and damage to the vehicle and liability insurance of $100,000 each person bodily injury, $300,000 bodily injury each accident and $25,000 for property damage, combined single limit, provided the UW ID number is in the reservation and the renter and any additional authorized driver have complied with the terms of the rental agreement.

For more information on international insurance coverages, click here.

Please note that in the case of loss or damage to the vehicle, some countries will require a deductible be paid, even though collision and theft coverage may be included in the rate. Please confirm, at time of reservation, that the car type and rate selected is a UW contract specified vehicle type and that the rate includes collision and theft protection. Please also inquire at the time of reservation, what, if any, the deductible amount will be and whether or not a product is available to purchase, that will waive the deductible amount.

In those countries that do not include the collision/theft insurance in the rate, Collision Damage Waiver and Theft Protection should be purchased unless the rental is charged to the US Bank Travel Card which contains that insurance coverage. Please check with National's International Reservation desk at 1-800-CAR-EUROPE to determine if collision and theft insurance is included.
