Third-party liability cover is compulsory in Spain, so it's always included in the rental price. Most rates also come with basic collision damage waiver (CDW), though usually with an excess you'd still have to pay. Any extra cover offered at the counter is entirely optional - no rental company is allowed to force you into upgrading it. Check what your rate already covers before you book, then decide yourself whether you want to insure the excess separately.

Usually not: basic collision damage waiver (CDW) typically excludes damage to tyres, wheels, windscreens, the underbody, the roof and lost keys. These are exactly the parts most at risk on narrow country roads or gravel tracks. Read your contract carefully and add extra cover if needed - only what's written down in the agreement counts if something goes wrong.

The excess - called franquicia in Spanish - is the maximum amount you'd have to pay yourself if there's any damage. In Mallorca it's often in the four-figure range depending on the car category, typically somewhere between roughly 1,000 and 1,700 euros. That amount is usually pre-authorised as a hold on your credit card. You can reduce the excess for an extra fee at the counter, or often insure it more cheaply through a separate rental car policy - it's worth comparing both options.

No - additional cover is always optional, and the rental company isn't allowed to force you to upgrade your basic protection. One common trick: if the main driver has no credit card of their own, a second driver with a credit card may suddenly become 'necessary' for the deposit, charged at a high additional-driver fee. Stay calm, insist on getting everything in writing, and read the contract before signing, since verbal promises don't count.

You'll generally need a valid EU card driving licence - a UK photocard licence is also accepted - plus your ID or passport and a payment card in the driver's name. An international driving permit isn't required for EU or UK drivers, but it's often needed if your licence was issued outside the EU. The minimum age is usually 21, with young-driver surcharges commonly applying under 25.
