Who can Cuvva insure?

We offer temporary car insurance to as many drivers as we can, but there are some age, licence, and vehicle restrictions. The easiest way to check if you’re eligible is to get a quote in the app. Here's how it all works.

We’ve helped 1.5 million+ people get on the road with temporary car insurance, and we’re always working to cover as many drivers as possible.

The quickest way to check if you’re eligible is to get a quote in the app.

Here's a little more information about who Cuvva can insure 👇


Age and licence

Exact age requirements can sometimes vary depending on your vehicle's type, age, value, and insurance group. But generally, here's how it works.

Full licence holders

  • Aged 19 to 70 for cars

  • Aged 21 to 70 for vans

  • Aged 25-75 for campervans

  • Held your licence for at least 6 months

  • If you’re under 21, you’ll usually need 6 months’ driving experience with no at-fault claims

Learner drivers

  • Learner drivers must be aged 17 to 50

  • Held your provisional licence for less than 15 years

  • Driving with a supervisor aged 25+ with 5 years’ experience


Accepted licences

You can use Cuvva with:

  • A UK driving licence issued in England, Scotland, Wales, or Northern Ireland

  • A full EU licence (most countries)

  • A full licence from Norway or Switzerland

Here's the full list of international driving licences you can use with Cuvva.


Your driving history

We can often cover drivers who’ve had:

  • Previous claims or accidents

  • Licence points or endorsements

It depends on the details, so it’s important to declare everything before you buy a policy.


Your vehicle

We cover a wide range of cars, vans, motorhomes, and campervans.

If you didn’t get a quote, it might be down to the vehicle itself. You can try again with a different one, or see what vehicles Cuvva covers.


Other things we check

We’ll also check:

  • That you’re in Great Britain when starting your policy

  • That we can find your DVLA and vehicle details

  • That your account is active


Try again in the app

Sometimes you might not get a quote for one vehicle, but you can for another.

It’s always worth trying again, as things can change.
