What is chauffeur insurance?

Chauffeur insurance is private hire cover built around executive work. It includes hire and reward use for carrying fare-paying passengers, with the higher vehicle values, corporate clients and airport or event work that chauffeur operators deal with.

Executive cars cost more to repair and replace, and corporate clients often ask for higher liability limits than standard private hire work.

Your chauffeur insurance depends on:

Vehicle value and model
Executive or VIP work
Airport and long-distance runs
Number of vehicles and drivers
Where cars are kept overnight
Annual mileage

What affects the cost of chauffeur insurance?

Chauffeur insurance has no fixed price. It depends on your vehicles and their values, whether you do corporate, airport or VIP work, your drivers, the liability limits your clients require, your mileage and your claims history.

Vehicle value

Executive and prestige cars cost more to repair or replace.

Type of work

Corporate travel, airport transfers and VIP work each carry different risks.

Drivers

Experienced, mature drivers with clean licences improve your terms.

Liability limits

Higher limits requested by corporate clients add to the premium.

Mileage and area

Airport runs and long-distance work cover more miles than local jobs.

Claims history

Accidents and claims push executive hire premiums up.
