Cheap Budget Car Hire in Chiang Rai

Steer clear of peak traffic times to minimize delays and frustration.

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

Before concluding your car hire in Chiang Rai, confirm the exact drop-off location with Budget. This will save you time and help avoid any confusion at the end of your rental period.

When hiring a car in Chiang Rai, be aware that rentals are charged per day. For instance, Budget charges per day, so if you rent for more than 24 hours, you’ll incur an additional day’s charge. Plan your hire period to avoid extra costs

When renting a car, understand the fuel policy. A 'Full-to-Full' policy means you return the car with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' means you return it with the same level of fuel. Full-to-Full is often more cost-effective.

A credit card is often required for deposits, especially with suppliers like Budget in Chiang Rai. If you only have a debit card, use our website filter to find suitable offers or consider obtaining a credit card. Ensure that the main driver’s card is used to avoid any additional fees.

Be aware that some rental companies impose age restrictions or additional fees for drivers under 25. Make sure to check the company’s age policy when booking.

Before booking, check for any promotional offers or discounts that may be available. Many rental companies provide seasonal deals or discounts for early bookings.
