Car Hire in Cambodia

Some rental companies offer a free tank of fuel with your rental. Be sure to understand the terms, including how much fuel you need to return the car with and any potential fees for not meeting these conditions.

Most rental companies will require a credit card for the deposit, which is typically frozen in your account. Make sure to inquire about the specific deposit amount and the policy for releasing the freeze.

Some rentals may have mileage caps. Check the details to avoid extra fees if you exceed limits.

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

Consider local weather conditions and seasonal variations that might affect driving, such as snow or rain.

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

If you are travelling to Cambodia and considering hiring a car, choosing an in-terminal car hire supplier can save you time and hassle. Find suppliers with locations right at the airport, allowing you to avoid shuttle buses or meet-and-greet services and ensuring a quicker and more convenient pickup.

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.
