Our rental rates include insurance coverage. Please see the details below.

We offer several insurance options, including Collision Damage Waiver (CDW), Personal Accident Insurance (PAI), and Supplemental Liability Insurance (SLI).

Collision Damage Waiver (CDW): This provides basic damage coverage for the car’s bodywork. However, CDW typically comes with an excess amount, which is the portion you would need to pay towards repairs. The deductible ranges from P10,000.00 to P35,000.00, depending on the car type. Note that CDW only covers the car’s bodywork; you are responsible for the full cost of repairs and any administration charges for damage to windows, wheels, the undercarriage, interior, or personal belongings.

Supplemental Liability Insurance (SLI): SLI covers damages to other people’s property, such as their cars, and medical costs for injuries sustained in an accident. The maximum coverage is P100,000.00 for property damage and P100,000.00 for physical injury.

Personal Accident Insurance (PAI): PAI covers accidental medical costs, emergency care, and accidental death for the driver and passengers during the rental period. The coverage limit is up to P50,000.00 per person. Please note, this insurance does not cover injuries sustained by individuals renting motorcycles from Saferide Car Rental.

Foreigners who hold a valid driver’s license issued by the road authorities of their home country can drive here in the Philippines for up to 90 days after their arrival, provided that their license is in English. If the foreign driver’s license is not in English, the foreigner should have an official English translation from the local embassy of the issuing country.

This cover is only valid if you stick to the terms of the rental agreement. It doesn’t cover other parts of the car (e.g. windows, wheels, interior or undercarriage), or charges (e.g. for towing or down time), or anything in the car (e.g. child seats, GPS devices or personal belongings).

Motorcycle – P5,000.00
Economy Car/Sedan – P10,000.00
Mid-Size Sedan/MPV/Minivan/Pick-up Trucks – P20,000.00
Vans/SUV – P35,000.00

Yes, you can ship your rental vehicle between islands within the Philippines, but prior approval from Saferide Car Rental is required. You will be responsible for all costs associated with the shipping, including shipping fees, taxes, and any other third-party charges. Please note that Saferide Car Rental will only reimburse charges for mechanical repairs if the vehicle experiences a mechanical issue during the rental period. Roadside assistance is not available during inter-island shipping. Additionally, inter-island shipping insurance is not included, so you will need to obtain marine insurance coverage. Regardless of the circumstances, it is your responsibility to return the rental vehicle to a Saferide Car Rental location.
