It's easy to opt in to this plan during the checkout process.
Can I drive in Samai with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Thailand, then it's likely you'll need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country in order to rent a car. You should also note that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll be asked to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. A few other things to note for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be at least 25 in many countries to rent a car. If you're younger, 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 what kinds of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before driving away. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with your rental car.
