Why choose CarHireExcess.ie?

If you're planning to rent a car abroad, purchasing a car hire excess insurance policy online before you travel has now become the 'must have' travel companion. It helps you avoid unexpected and overpriced hidden charges by car rental companies.

Most car rental companies will make you liable for the first portion of the repair or replacement costs to your car hire, if you're unfortunate enough to have an accident. This is known as the 'excess' and could cost you anything up to €2,000 - even if it's just a small scratch on your rental car.

These car rental companies will also offer you the option to cover this 'excess' at excessive and overpriced rates. But you can avoid these rip-off charges at the car rental desk abroad by availing of cheaper costs online before you travel with CarHireExcess.ie. We offer European car hire excess insurance cover starting from €2.99 per day or €48.99 for an Annual policy.

CarHireExcess.ie is also part of the Blue Insurance Group, an Irish award-winning insurance provider. Our commitment to customers is to offer comprehensive insurance cover from a trusted provider, at very competitive prices and with great customer service.
