At the time of booking, you paid agency fees, plus the first month’s rent upfront   *First monthly rent paid: €3,000* *Agency fees paid: €180* *Total amount of the rental: €9,180 (3 months’ rent + agency fees)* *Cost of cancellation of stay insurance: 3.5% of the total amount of the rental* ### Rent an apartment in Paris and stay as long as you need [Free estimate](https://www.parisattitude.com/tenant/flat-hunters-request.aspx?checkcart=true&utm_source=blog-pa&utm_medium=blog-post&utm_campaign=devis) [Search for an apartment](https://www.parisattitude.com/rent-apartment/furnished-rental/index,rentals.aspx?utm_source=blog-pa&utm_medium=blog-post&utm_campaign=search) **If you are forced to cancel your reservation before the start date of your stay:**   |   | WITHOUT CANCELLATION/INTERRUPTION OF STAY INSURANCE | WITH CANCELLATION/INTERRUPTION OF STAY INSURANCE | | --- | --- | --- | | Insurance cost | €0 | €321.30 | | Amount reimbursed | €0 | €3,000 + €180 reimbursed by the cancellation insurance | | Amount you won’t get back | €3,181 | €0 |   **By taking out the cancellation insurance, the amount you paid upfront will automatically be reimbursed. You will only need to pay the cost of the insurance.**   ### What amounts are reimbursed?   In case of cancellation of the lease, insurance company Groupama offers the tenant the guaranteed reimbursement of the sums paid upfront as a deposit, plus the agency fees, with a limit of **€15,000 per claim** In case of interruption of the rental, insurance company Groupama offers the insured tenant the guaranteed reimbursement of the sums paid upfront as rent with a limit of **€15,000 per claim.** In addition, no deductible will be required.   ### For what type of stay does this “cancellation/interruption of stay” insurance apply?   Whether you are booking an apartment for a few months or years, we offer you the option of taking out cancellation insurance to cover the most common risks.   ### What are the risks covered by the “cancellation/interruption of stay” insurance?   Several types of risks are covered by our cancellation insurance.
