What does third-party car insurance cover in Cyprus, and how is it different from CDW? A plain explanation from a Larnaca rental office.
Every LAYTH rental includes mandatory third-party insurance. Here's what that means in plain words.
It covers damage you cause to other people and their property, such as another car or a wall.
Damage to the rental car itself. That's what a CDW (Collision Damage Waiver) is for, and we don't include one. Ask us on WhatsApp +357 94004999 what applies if the rental car is damaged, before you book.
We never call it "full insurance". You should know exactly what you're covered for.
Our insurance covers the Republic of Cyprus only. If you drive to the North, you buy North insurance yourself at the crossing point.

No, it covers damage to third parties only.
