Car Hire in Taiwan

If you have a specific vehicle in mind, opt for rentals that guarantee your chosen car type. This ensures that you receive the vehicle you expect, rather than being offered an alternative.

Before booking a car hire in Taiwan, carefully examine the terms from suppliers like Rise Sun, Chailease, and VIP Car Rental. Focus on details such as payment card requirements, deposits, cross-border travel rules, and driving licence specifications to avoid unexpected issues.

Make sure you know which type of fuel your rental car uses to avoid costly mistakes at the pump.

Many car hire deals in Taiwan 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.

Research any local driving restrictions, such as tolls, road types, and restricted zones, to avoid fines.

When booking, check if the rental company offers extras such as GPS or child seats. These can enhance your driving experience but may incur additional costs, so it's wise to factor them into your budget.

Many rental companies require payment by credit card and may not accept debit cards. If you only have a debit card, check the rental company's payment policies in advance and look for suitable options.

When selecting insurance, consider whether it includes free excess coverage. Free excess means you won’t pay a deductible in case of damage, providing additional peace of mind. Compare options to find the best fit for your needs.
