10 tips to save on your car rental in and around Patong

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting vehicle types and features. Whether you're looking for an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car for budget-friendly options, utilize filters on Expedia to discover the best fit for your journey.
  2. Book in advance to help lower costs: Rental rates can vary based on demand, so it's wise to secure your car well ahead of your travel dates. By booking early, you’re more likely to lock in lower rates and enjoy a wider selection, especially during peak travel seasons.
  3. Consider a smaller car for savings: Generally, smaller cars are more affordable to rent and easier to maneuver in crowded areas. Mid-size vehicles strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  4. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily fees, and some vehicle categories—such as SUVs or luxury models—might not be available. This can also apply to renters over 70 years old. Always verify the age restrictions before making a reservation.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements require a full-to-full fuel policy, meaning you must return the vehicle with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This option is usually the most economical. Other policies may include full-to-empty or prepaid fueling, which is acceptable as well—just ensure you return the car empty in that case.
  6. Save on city and airport pickups: Picking up your rental car at airports often incurs a surcharge, but the added convenience may justify the extra cost.
  7. Know your payment options: Most car rental companies only accept credit cards for payments.
  8. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you avoid unexpected expenses and provide peace of mind in case something unforeseen occurs during your trip. Adding car rental insurance while booking on Expedia is straightforward.
  9. Consider unlimited mileage: If you have plans for long road trips, seek out rental options that offer unlimited mileage to prevent additional charges.
  10. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is mandatory for renting a car.

You'll generally be limited to a few car categories, such as economy and mid-size, and may also have to purchase inclusive insurance. Be sure to enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to find out if any restrictions or extra fees apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Patong?
While rules can differ between rental car outlets, generally the essentials are a current driver's license and a credit card in your name. You don't need to take out the company's auto insurance. However, proof of alternative coverage may be required.

Where can I find a Patong car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to investigate the age policy of the Patong rental suppliers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years of age, be mindful that some will charge extra fees. It's handy to know this in advance so you can budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own rules for young drivers, so it pays to do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Patong?
We recommend adding collision protection while booking your Patong car rental with Expedia. This protects your ride against vandalism, theft and accident damage throughout your road trip. Offering up to $35,000 in primary coverage and 24/7 emergency help, you can take the wheel knowing you're covered for most mishaps. It's easy to opt in to this plan during the checkout process.
Can I drive in Patong with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Thailand, then you may need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence in order to rent a car. Also consider that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll be asked to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some added requirements to rent a car internationally are:
  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be at least 25 in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it might still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of vehicles you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before driving away. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your rental car.
