Dubai hire plans and charges
Check the applicable service, prices and booking conditions before making plans.
- price
- Not confirmed: The current booking page did not expose a base rate. Confirm car, dates, VAT and all mandatory charges in the final quote.
- booking policy
- Email changes or cancellation 24 hours before booking; early returns may be repriced at daily or weekly rates. Monthly renewal terms require notice three days before expiry. Exact seven-day boundary and cancellation charges require confirmation.
- location access
- Dubai rental locations and doorstep handover are offered; published terms list AED 60 delivery/collection within Dubai city limits. The table does not clearly state whether this is per leg; confirm the combined handover cost.
- eligibility
- Confirm age approval; under-22 drivers face extra accident liability and over-65 drivers require insurer approval. A universal minimum rental age was not established by the reviewed material.
- documents
- Residents and visitors have different licence/ID requirements; a UAE licence under six months needs a two-year home licence. Bring passport/visa, Emirates ID for residents and payment documents; confirm visitor licence acceptance before booking.
- deposit payment
- Terms specify AED 1,000 economy or AED 5,000 premium credit-card hold; debit deposits are charged and later refunded.
- mileage
- Daily/weekly Nissan and most brands advertise unlimited distance; Infiniti and Jeep have limits. Monthly limits are category-specific. Nissan/other monthly: 4,500 km, extra 40 fils/km; Infiniti/Jeep: 4,000 km, extra 60 fils/km. The exception wording is inconsistent, so confirm the chosen car.
- insurance
- Basic insurance retains excess and excludes wheels, windscreen and punctures; a final police report is required for damage. Obtain the vehicle-specific excess and optional SCDW details; age and licence history can increase liability.
- extra charges
- VAT is 5%; vehicle management, handover, extra drivers, tolls, fines and fuel can be additional. Tolls are actual cost plus AED1 administration and VAT; fines add 10%.
- fuel return
- Return at the recorded starting fuel level; missing fuel attracts a 20% refuelling fee on the fuel cost.
- availability
- Requested vehicle availability is conditional; an alternative of the same model or class may be supplied.
