Chauffeur Insurance, sometimes called Executive Hire Insurance, is a specialist type of hire and reward insurance. This type of cover considers the unique risks that go hand-in-hand with carrying passengers in executive vehicles. Chauffeur Insurance is designed for higher-value, luxury vehicles and we can arrange cover for you on policies with drivers between 25 and 70.
We provide a range of cover at competitive rates for new startup Chauffeurs who operate one vehicle to established Chauffeur companies that operate large numbers of vehicles (Chauffeur Fleet).
We work with a wide panel of insurers so that we can meet a diverse range of demands for our customers.
We understand operating higher-value, luxury vehicles can come with greater risk than a standard Private Hire vehicle, and we can provide cover specifically designed for this.
We always aim to provide outstanding customer service, and we are proud to have received Feefo’s highest service award for 5 years in a row.
Comprehensive is recommended to all chauffeur drivers as it will provide cover for them in all potential accident scenarios, including damage to their own vehicle.
Third-Party, Fire and Theft will cover a chauffeur driver if any damage is made to another vehicle or if another driver claims against them, plus it covers the cost of the vehicle should it be stolen or damaged by fire (minus any excess). However, this level of cover offers no accidental damage cover for the driver’s vehicle.
Third-Party Only is the lowest level of cover a chauffeur driver can get, and will cover the driver for damage to any other vehicle or third party, in the event of a fault accident.

Uber Exec is not usually covered by chauffeur insurance.
Standard Private Hire insurance can provide cover for vehicles operating under ride-hailing platforms such as Uber or Bolt.
Public Liability covers drivers if they injure a member of the public, a passenger or damages their property. Public Liability covers accidents incurred during working as a chauffeur driver, which do not involved the vehicle.
It will depend on the insurer whether or not Public Liability is included in your policy. It can also be a paid optional extra, or you could need a separate standalone policy if your contract requires it.
If you have any further questions about Public Liability Insurance, get in touch with us today and our team of experts can help you with any queries you have.
