Handover–acceptance report — the document signed by both parties recording the condition, equipment, fuel level and odometer reading of the Vehicle.

2.1. The Lessor grants the Lessee the use of the Vehicle for the Rental Period, and the Lessee undertakes to pay the rental fee and to comply with these terms.

2.2. The Vehicle remains the property of the Lessor at all times — the Lessee acquires no title to it.

2.3. Where an individual Rental Contract regulates a matter differently, the Rental Contract prevails.

3. Conclusion of the contract

3.1. A reservation may be requested on tfe.lv, by e-mail or by telephone. It becomes binding once the Lessor has confirmed it.

3.4. The Lessee is liable for the conduct of every driver named in the Rental Contract and of all other users of the Vehicle as for its own.

4.1. The Vehicle is handed over in technically sound condition, clean, with its documents, keys and equipment, against a handover–acceptance report.

Where the insurer refuses or reduces indemnity because of the conduct of the Lessee or the driver — including where the Vehicle was driven by a person not named in the Rental Contract or by a person under the influence of intoxicating substances, where the event was not reported to the police or the insurer, where the keys or documents were lost, or where the wrong fuel was used — the Lessee bears the loss in full.
