Damage Waiver (DW) reduces the liability in the event of damage or theft of the vehicle, when no responsible third party is identified. If DW is not included in the reservation, the renter has full liability for the vehicle, DW is available for purchase and reduces the applicable excess on all vehicles to zero. If purchasing DW at Munich Airport, the excess is reduced down to the following levels.If DW is included in the reservation (or DW is puchased at MUC), all Car and SUV categories of the sizes Mini, Economy and Compact have a 1200.00 EUR excess. Intermediate, Standard, Small Passenger Vans and Small Cargo Vans have a 1400.00 EUR excess. For Full-size and Premium vehicles, Large Passenger Vans, Large SUVs, Luxury Elite Electric vehicles and Luton Cargo Vans the excess is 1700.00 EUR. For all Medium and Large size Cargo Vans an excess of 1500.00 EUR applies. Excess will be charged for each separate incident of damage.Before purchasing DW it is advised to determine, if a personal coverage is adequate to cover damage, theft, loss of revenue, administration fees, diminishment of value, and any towing, storage or impound fees. If DW is declined, the renter will be required to pay these charges and seek compensation through their carrier of personal coverage. DW is not insurance.
