Question 2

Why do I need a credit card to rent a car from AVIS in Doha?

The card must be in the primary driver's name to ensure that the renter is financially responsible for the vehicle. In some locations, debit cards may be accepted, but they often require additional documentation or a credit check. Always check with AVIS for specific payment policies in Doha

Question 3

Should I purchase extra insurance when renting a AVIS car in Doha, Qatar?

Accepted Answer

Every rental company requires valid insurance for financial security. Without it, AVIS may refuse your rental. Exceptions where insurance may not be necessary include: Existing coverage that applies to international rentals and matches your chosen car type/class. Additional insurance from your credit card provider that covers rentals abroad. If you don't meet these criteria, purchasing some form of protection is essential. You can secure your deposit by purchasing Excess Fee Insurance during booking on our website, or opt for Full Coverage Insurance or Excess Reduction at the AVIS rental counter.

Question 4

Do I need to return the vehicle with a full tank of gas?

Accepted Answer

The AVIS fuel policy you select in Doha will determine your fueling responsibilities. With a full-to-full or same-to-same option, you need to return the car with the same amount of fuel it had at pickup. If not, you'll be charged for the missing fuel at a rate higher than the local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank. This means you won't need to refuel the car before returning it. However, the cost will be higher overall since you'll be charged the local gas price minus a per-gallon discount, leading to an increased total cost.
