Additional cover
No worries with our additional cover
We know that hiring a car can be confusing, especially when thinking about how you are covered. That is why we aim to give you an easy-to-understand explanation of all the covers already included in every rental inside Finland.
When you rent a car outside Finland, always remember to check what covers and insurances are includied in the price, and how much the excess (i.e. the amount that you have to pay) at time of damage or theft is.
Basic cover - included in all rentals in Finland
When you hire a vehicle from Budget Finland, the price you pay automatically includes a basic level of cover and third party cover. Basic cover includes damage cover and theft cover. With Basic cover, the excess varies by car group from 1200€ to 4000€.
If you want to reduce your excess, please select one of the following additional cover packages.
Additional cover packages
You can reduce the excess that you’d have to pay towards repairs or replacement of the vehicle significantly, or even completely, by adding cover packages with extra fee to your booking.
You can add cover packages to your rental when you pick up your car at rental location.
