Temporary and short term car insurance
Our short-term and temporary car insurance gives drivers cover on a UK-registered car for a short period of time. Cost-effective and simple to set up, our insurance offers our customers an easy way to add extra drivers to an existing policy on a temporary basis.
Temporary and short term insurance cover is available from one hour up to 28 days and is backed by Aviva, so you can drive away in the knowledge that your comprehensive cover is authorised and regulated.
One-day car insurance
One-day car insurance is perfect for those who only want cover for a short journey or less than 24 hours. There are several circumstances that would require 1-day insurance, here are a few of them:
- a one-off business trip or meeting where the driver isn’t insured on the car policy.
- if a friend or family member is borrowing a car they aren’t insured on.
- shared driving on a long journey.
- the annual policyholder isn’t able to drive or is ill.
- supervision for someone who wants to learn to drive.
- taking a car for a test drive.
One-month car insurance
One-month car insurance is great for those who want their vehicle insured for a little longer than one day. Temporary car insurance cover for at least 30 days gives you the freedom to travel further or travel for longer in your chosen vehicle. There are a number of situations where monthly insurance is useful:
- a friend or family member wants to drive a car when visiting from abroad.
- a family member is home from university and wants the use of the vehicle.
- taking a car on holiday or to the airport for a significant amount of time.
- your daily vehicle is going into the garage.
Business car insurance
It is often misunderstood that your annual policy covers you when you take your car on a business trip, but this isn’t often the case. Annual insurance policies generally only cover commuting to and from your regular place of work. The Dayinsure temporary business car insurance is the ultimate choice for those wanting to insure themselves on business trips or when driving to a meeting or appointment.
Business car insurance is beneficial for:
- an individual who is using someone else’s car for work or business regularly.
- someone who is borrowing a car to visit clients or another branch.
- travelling to a conference or business event.
- when a larger vehicle is required to transport goods.
- when a regular business car is in the garage.

Temporary motorhome insurance
If you’re looking to head off on holiday or want to travel around in your motorhome for a short period of time, our temporary motorhome insurance is here to help you. Our motorhome policy puts you in control which means you can organise your cover for as little or as long as you need.
It is important to note that temporary motorhome insurance is only for those who own the vehicle that is being insured, if you would like to organise insurance for a hiree, you must be regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

Temporary car insurance for students
Students are often coming home to see family and friends when breaks from university allow it, so making sure they have insurance and the freedom to travel when they are home is important. Temporary insurance for students is available for a short period of time, as little as one day up to 30 days.

- registration number of the car to be insured.
- passport number (for non-UK, NI and Isle of Man drivers).
- once you have a quote, decide how long you require cover for and if you want any of the optional extras. Simply use your driving licence and payment details (debit, credit card or PayPal) to buy your short term car insurance for students.
