- When driving car rentals in Asia, know that the roads may be busier than in many other places. While major cities will have a good road network and proper lighting, they will also have more traffic on the road. Expect high levels of both pedestrian and motorized traffic. Depending on where you're driving Asia car rentals, you should look out for pedestrians, auto rickshaws, motorbikes, and animals in various Asian cities.
- The best type of car rental in Asia depends on the country and region you’re visiting. If you’re visiting a country or region with a less mainted road network or large sections of unpaved roads, consider renting an SUV or a four-wheel drive (4WD). You can choose any Asia car rental if you’ll be driving in major cities with well-paved roads. Your needs will also determine the type of car rental in Asia you get. A smaller Asia car rental, such as a compact or economy car, may be more practical for solo travelers or couples.
- Traffic is a major issue in most Asian countries, especially during peak travel hours in highly populated cities. You’ll likely encounter heavy traffic during morning and evening commutes when driving in major cities in Asia. India has the highest number of Asian cities with the heaviest traffic, including Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, and Kolkata. Other cities with the heaviest rush hour traffic on the continent include Manila in the Philippines and Dhaka in Bangladesh.
- Cross-border travel is uncommon for most people driving Asia car rentals. However, there are a few exceptions, such as in Singapore, where you can cross the border into Malaysia with a Singaporean rental car, provided you have proper insurance bought from the rental company. Before getting a car rental in Asia, you should review your provider’s policy carefully to understand the cross-border travel rules and requirements.

Should I get a car rental in Asia?
Getting an Asia car rental offers a convenient option for exploring the continent. You can drive to multiple attractions in different countries at your own pace and on your own schedule. Some Asian nations have limited public transportation coverage, so a car rental in Asia provides a better option to access places not well-served by public transportation. With Asia car rentals, you can drive to popular attractions on the continent, like the Great Wall of China, Ha Long Bay in Vietnam, the Silk Road in Central Asia, and the Taj Mahal in India.
What is driving car rentals in Asia like?
Driving in Asia can be easy and challenging at the same time. About half of the countries drive on the right-hand side of the road. You’ll need an International Driving Permit (IDP) to drive in most Asian countries since English is not the primary language. Some countries have bilingual road signs, while others rely primarily on their native language for road signage, which can pose a navigation challenge. Consider renting a vehicle with a GPS navigation system or using online/offline maps. Most Asian countries have extensive toll road networks, so confirm whether the route you'll be using includes toll roads and research the toll rates and payment methods. Speed limits vary from one nation to another and are commonly posted in kilometers per hour.
How old should I be to get a car rental in Asia?
The minimum driving age in most Asian countries is 18. However, most rental providers on the continent require renters to be at least 21 years old. Some providers have a minimum rental age limit of 25. Renters who have attained the legal driving age but are under 25 may incur a young driver’s fee. To rent a car in Asia, you must provide a valid driver’s license from your country of origin, additional identification documents (a passport or photo ID), and a credit card for payment. An international driving permit isn’t a major requirement, but it’s useful when driving on most roads in Asia.
