Car rental in Abu Dhabi, UAE: what to know
Airport car rental in Abu Dhabi
Most suppliers operate at or near the airport terminals. After landing you can pick up at the desk, rental parking or via a transfer to the handover point.
Check the pickup terminal, desk hours and overnight availability — especially for late flights.
Car rental conditions
A national driving licence is usually enough. An International Driving Permit (IDP) is not always required and depends on the licence country and supplier policy.
The minimum renter age is commonly 21+, with at least 2 years of driving experience; premium cars may require more.
Most companies accept Visa and Mastercard. There are also no-credit-card, no-deposit, MIR-card and cash options. An advance is usually paid at booking, with the balance due at pickup.
In case of an accident, contact the police and notify the rental company. Driver liability is defined by the rental agreement and selected insurance.

The catalog covers practically all popular categories:
- Economy
- Comfort
- SUV
- Minivan
- Convertible
- Premium

Car rental specifics in the UAE
What to check before your trip: traffic rules, documents, insurance, fuel and pickup terms.
- 🚗 Road traffic: Right-hand traffic. The UAE drives on the right, and most rental cars have an automatic gearbox — convenient even for first-time self-drive visitors.
- 🚦 Speed limits: Speed control. Highways and cities use automatic speed cameras, so rules must be followed carefully. Even small excesses can mean high fines passed on by the rental company.
- ⛽ Fuel: Fuel and car return. Check the fuel return rule before drop-off. In most cases you can pay for fuel by card or cash; terms are shown on the offer card.
- 📄 Documents: Rental documents. You usually need a passport, driving licence and ID. In some cases the supplier may ask for extra details before handover.
- 🛡 Insurance: Insurance cover. Many offers include standard insurance, but the scope depends on the supplier. Before booking, confirm the excess and the driver’s liability limit.
- 📱 Online booking: Online service. Compare offers, pick a model and book on the website or partner app to find the best available terms quickly.
- ⭐ Service: Service quality. Check customer reviews before picking up. Good suppliers offer clear terms, solid support and reliable service.
- 🌍 Border crossing: Travel outside the UAE. Leaving the UAE is usually allowed only with supplier approval. If you plan an international trip, confirm tariff restrictions in advance.
- 💻 Booking details: Offer information. All rental terms appear on the offer card: price, deposit, insurance, payment methods, driver requirements and extras — so you can compare and choose quickly.
- Car pickup: Many suppliers offer pickup at the airport, office, hotel or a delivery address. In some cases delivery is 24/7 or within an hour when the supplier provides that service.
