9 tips to save on your Sohar Airport car hire

  1. Use filters to find the right car: Refine your search by selecting specific vehicle types and features. Whether you require an SUV for additional space, a convertible for summer drives, or an economy car for extra luggage, utilize the filters on Expedia to discover the perfect option for your trip.
  2. Book in advance for some of the best rates: It's generally advisable to secure your airport car rental as early as possible to take advantage of lower rates and a wider selection. Reserving your rental 1-3 months ahead of time is optimal, especially before peak travel seasons.
  3. Age guidelines: Drivers under 30 may encounter higher deposits or daily surcharges, and certain vehicle types—such as SUVs or premium models—might have limited availability. This can also apply to renters over the age of 70. Always verify the age requirements before finalizing your booking.
  4. Consider a budget-friendly car for savings: Smaller vehicles, like economy or compact cars, are typically more affordable to rent and easier to park in crowded areas. Mid-size rentals strike a good balance between cost, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
  5. Check fuel policies: Some rental agreements require a full-to-full fuel policy, which means you must return the car with a full tank to avoid additional charges. This option is usually the most favorable. Others may provide full-to-empty or prepaid fueling options, which are acceptable as well. Just ensure you return the car empty in this case.
  6. Know your payment options: Most rental companies necessitate a credit card in the driver's name for security deposits. Debit cards may not always be accepted.
  7. Understand your insurance coverage: Car rental insurance can help you prevent unexpected costs and offers peace of mind if something unforeseen occurs during your trip. It's simple to add car rental insurance when booking through Expedia.
  8. Check for unlimited mileage: If you plan on spending considerable time on the road, look for rentals that offer unlimited mileage to avoid extra charges on longer journeys.
  9. Bring your driver's license and ID: A valid driver's license is required to rent a vehicle.

Can I drive near Sohar (OHS) with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Oman, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence in order to rent a car.

Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some added requirements to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it may 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 available to rent.
