To avoid any costly financial mishaps in your rental car it is good to be fully informed about both your mandatory and optional coverage options. As well as their scope and limitations, we also have some tips on how to save money on a Sixt car rental deal in this unique destination.<\/p>\n<h2><b>YOUR <\/b><b>COVERAGE<\/b><b> OPTIONS FOR RENTAL CARS IN SINGAPORE<\/b><\/h2>\n<h4><b>LOSS DAMAGE WAIVER (LDW) INCLUDING <\/b><b>THEFT PROTECTION AND <\/b><b>THIRD PARTY INSURANCE (TI)<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>The loss damage waiver in Singapore includes theft protection and covers you in the case of damage or theft. There is a minimum deductible, though this figure can change depending on your vehicle category. You can reduce your deductible amount by choosing either the top cover or super top cover LDW options when booking via our website or when picking up your vehicle at your chosen branch. Third party liability covers you for in the event of a personal injury or material damages to a third party while utilizing the rental vehicle.<\/p>\n<h4><b>TIRE AND WINDS<\/b><b>HIELD<\/b><b> COVERAGE AND PERSONAL ACCIDENT PROTECTION<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>The loss damage waiver does not include tire and windshield cover, so we highly recommend choosing this option to secure these features. If you opt for the coverage, there is a deductible of zero if any damage to these features occurs. Personal accident protection protects you financially in the event of an accident. For further details on this option, please see your vehicle documents or ask the branch manager at your pick-up location.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2290 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/com.sx-magazine-wp.sixt.io\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/01\/Singapore.jpg\" alt=\"Singapore skyline\" width=\"1140\" height=\"724\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sixt.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/sites\/6\/2019\/01\/Singapore.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/www.sixt.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/sites\/6\/2019\/01\/Singapore-300x191.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sixt.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/sites\/6\/2019\/01\/Singapore-768x488.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sixt.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/sites\/6\/2019\/01\/Singapore-1024x650.jpg 1024w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1140px) 100vw, 1140px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1140px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1140\/724;\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>LIMITATIONS OF COVERAGE<\/h2>\n<p>Cross border rentals to Malaysia are only given by request.
