Hire agreement information

Hire agreement information

Your SIXT hire agreement is the contract you sign at pick-up and contains all the key information about your hire: vehicle, hire period, rate, protection package, excess, fuel level and any existing damage. Keep it until you receive your final invoice – it's the basis for any queries or claims.

Key sections

  • Hire agreement number – your reference for any enquiry

  • Hirer / driver – name of the main driver

  • Pick-up and return – date, time and location

  • Vehicle details – registration, model, vehicle category, mileage and fuel level at pick-up (e.g. "8/8")

  • Rate – hire days at the daily price, protection packages, extras and taxes shown as individual line items with quantity and unit price

  • Included kilometres and price per extra km – how many kilometres are included in your rate and the cost of any additional kilometres

  • Liability limitation with excess – the amount of your excess in case of damage

  • Payment information – payment method, card and authorised amount

Existing damage recorded at pick-up

Any existing damage to the vehicle is listed on the hire agreement (location, type and size of damage – e.g. "Front bumper, passenger side, scratch 5–10 cm"). Check the vehicle once more for damage before driving off and report any unrecorded damage directly to the SIXT staff member at the branch before you set off.

Cross-border rules

Your hire agreement lists the countries you may travel to with your vehicle category. Please review the listed zones and restrictions before driving abroad.
