Supplemental Liability Insurance

What is Supplemental Liability Insurance?

Supplemental Liability Insurance (SLI) is an extra cover you can choose to add when you book Worldwide Car Hire Excess Insurance. It tops up cover over and above the car hire company's own policy for costs you may be legally responsible to pay, such as car scratched or medical costs, stemming from an accident causing damage to someone's property or injuring someone while driving.

What does Supplemental Liability Insurance cover?

CarHireExcess.co.uk provides cover for:

  • Externally caused damage to the rental vehicle
  • Third party bodily injury
  • Damage caused by your rental vehicle to material property

Terms and conditions apply. Check the policy documents for full details.

Do I Need Supplemental Liability Insurance?

If you rent a car in countries such as USA and Canada, the Caribbean, Central or South America, third-party liability insurance can be just the minimum required by law. So, unfortunately, if you get involved in an accident while driving the rental vehicle in or through the countries previously mentioned, you can end up being legally liable to pay hugely costly bills in respect of third-party bodily injury and damage to property. For this reason, it's highly recommended that you have appropriate cover.
