Collision Damage Waiver and Theft Protection - CDWTP is offered at the time of rental for an additional daily charge ranging between 20.00 CHF and 50.00 CHF per day plus VAT and an excess amount. If the renter purchases CDWTP, National reduces the renters responsibility for theft, loss and/or damage to the rental vehicle including but not limited to towing, storage, loss of use, administrative and or diminished value of the rental vehicle subject to the terms and conditions of the rental agreement and applicable laws. CDWTP is not insurance. The purchase of CDWTP is not a required condition of rental.

In all cases CDWTP does not cover the renter for damages caused by driver negligence or legal violation. In these cases the renter will be liable for the entire financial loss incurred by the lessor.
