Car Hire in Pongch'ŏn'gu-dong, Seoul, South Korea

Before returning the car, clarify the return procedures with the rental agency. Knowing where to drop off the vehicle and any necessary inspections can ease the process.

Some rentals have mileage limits, while others provide unlimited options. Read the policies carefully to avoid unexpected charges upon return.

Ensure that you have a valid driving licence with at least one year of driving experience. If you are a foreign driver travelling to Seoul, an international driving permit may be required. Remember, hire rates can be higher for drivers under 25 or over 70

When renting a car, especially after travelling by train, allocate extra time for pickup to account for possible delays. Most car hire companies offer a 30-60 minute grace period. Sharing your train number can be helpful, but if you're running late, be sure to contact the car hire provider to let them know.

Before leaving the rental location, inspect the car for any existing damage and ensure it’s documented. Take photos if necessary to avoid disputes when returning the vehicle.

Many car hire deals at Pongch'ŏn'gu-dong require a credit card for the deposit. If you only have a debit card, use our website's filter to find options that accommodate it or consider getting a credit card. Make sure the main driver’s card is used to prevent any extra charges.

Before driving away, examine the rental car's interior for cleanliness and any functional issues. Ensure features like the radio and air conditioning are working properly.

Evaluating your insurance options is essential when renting a car. Look into Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) for added financial protection. Always clarify coverage requirements with the rental service.
