Cheap National Car Hire in Doha

Car-sharing services can be a flexible and cost-effective solution for brief journeys.

Being aware of gas stations ensures you won't run low during your travels.

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.

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.

When hiring a car, especially if you’re arriving in Doha by flight, plan for extra time at pickup to accommodate any potential delays. Suppliers like National typically offer a grace period of 30-60 minutes. Providing your flight number can be helpful, but if you’re running late, be sure to call the supplier to inform them.

Using a GPS or navigation app can help you avoid traffic jams and find efficient routes.

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

A credit card is often required for deposits, especially with suppliers like National in Doha. 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.
