What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Lahad Datu?
A comprehensive insurance plan is a smart choice for your Lahad Datu vacation. That's why we recommend opting in to collision protection while reserving your car rental with Expedia. This covers your vehicle from theft, vandalism and accident damage. Some destinations may also require a minimum level of liability insurance. This might be included in your rental price or your personal auto insurance, so check what you're covered for.
Can I drive in Lahad Datu with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Malaysia, then you might need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be able to rent a car. You should also be aware that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll need to show your current license your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in most places 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 what kinds of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before sliding behind the wheel. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with your rental car.
