Under the Swedish Traffic Damage Act (1975:1410), third-party cover can pay for damage arising from traffic with the insured vehicle, including:
- Injury to the driver of the insured vehicle
- Injury to passengers in the insured vehicle
- Injury to people outside the vehicle, such as pedestrians and cyclists
- Damage to someone else's vehicle
- Damage to other property outside the vehicle belonging to someone other than the policyholder or the driver
What is not included
- Damage to your own vehicle (to protect your own car as well, you need partial or comprehensive cover)
- Damage to property outside the vehicle belonging to you as policyholder or to the driver, unless the damage was caused by unlawful use of the vehicle
- Damage to property carried in, on or with the vehicle, beyond personal belongings in connection with an injury

Yes, you can. For example animal collision deductible waiver, a rental car add-on and all-risk cover. The one exception is extended new-value cover, which cannot be taken out with third-party cover alone.
