Expert Q&A
Is liability insurance mandatory in Germany?
While not legally required, liability insurance is essential in Germany due to unlimited personal liability. Most landlords and many employers require proof of coverage.
How much coverage do I really need?
Minimum €10 million is recommended. Medical costs for serious injuries can easily exceed €1 million, and property damage can be substantial. €50 million coverage costs only slightly more.
Does my insurance cover damage to rental cars?
Standard liability insurance typically covers damage you cause to rental cars, but not damage to the rental car itself. Consider adding rental car coverage to your policy.
What about coverage abroad?
Most policies include EU coverage. For worldwide coverage, especially USA/Canada where medical costs are extreme, ensure your policy includes adequate international protection.
Can I be personally liable even with insurance?
Yes, for intentional acts, contractual penalties, or claims exceeding your coverage limit. This is why adequate coverage limits are crucial.
How do I choose between different insurers?
Compare coverage details, not just price. Look for: coverage limits, deductibles, additional benefits (key loss, cyber liability), claim service quality, and financial stability ratings.
