Adding additional drivers to your car insurance policy is a pretty common requirement whether it is your spouse, partner or children. Here at Allianz we allow you to add additional drivers to your policy on a permanent or temporary basis, subject to standard acceptance criteria.

Permanent additional named drivers can be added to your policy provided they meet the same requirements as the main driver(s) with regard to licence, accident record and convictions.

Additional named drivers can usually be added to a policy when the policy is first taken out or at any stage during the policy*.

You can also add additional named drivers to your policy on a temporary basis*. We provide up to 30 days cover free of charge if a named driver is over 25 years of age, is claims/convictions free and holds a full clean driving licence.

An additional charge will apply if the driver is under the age of 25 or does not hold a full clean driving licence.

Temporary Additional Drivers aged under 25 cannot be added in your first year of insurance.

Temporary Drivers are subject to the same requirements as the Main Driver(s) with regard to licence, accident record and convictions. Please note an additional excess applied to those drivers under 25 or who have a provisional licence. See your policy booklet or click here  for more information.

Open Driving is an optional extra (available at an additional cost*) that allows other qualified drivers to use your car as long as they’re between the ages of 30 and 70 and they meet the same requirements as the main driver(s) with regard to licence, accident record and convictions. This option is only available if you are aged 25 or older.

Open Driving might not be available for your type of car and it is not available where we have provided a premium reduction for insuring a second car with us. Open Driving covers anyone within the specified age range to drive the insured car provided they:

  • Have a full clean licence
  • No more than 6 penalty points or two fixed charge notices

 

*Minimum premium of €284 applies.
