Car Rental Pakistan: FAQs
Is self-driving recommended for tourists renting a car in Pakistan?
Generally not—traffic is chaotic, road signs are scarce, and driving norms differ greatly. Most foreign visitors opt for chauffeur-driven rentals for safety. If you drive yourself, limit travel to Islamabad or Lahore. Avoid night driving due to poor lighting and unexpected hazards. A local driver adds minimal cost but significantly improves safety and navigation during your stay.
What documents are required to rent a vehicle in Pakistan?
Foreigners need a valid home-country driver’s license, an International Driving Permit (IDP), and a passport. Pakistani citizens must show a local license and CNIC. A credit card in the driver’s name is typically required for the deposit. Always carry physical copies—digital IDs aren’t accepted at rental desks or police checkpoints across Pakistan.
What is the minimum age to rent a car in Pakistan?
You must be at least 21 to rent, though some providers require 25 for SUVs or premium models. Local renters may be accepted at 18 with a valid license. Younger drivers often face higher daily rates or limited vehicle choices.
How much does a car rental cost in Pakistan?
Economy cars start at $30–$40 per day. Sedans or compact SUVs range from $50–$65/day. Adding a driver costs $10–$15 extra daily. Rates usually include basic insurance but exclude fuel, tolls, and parking. Prices rise during holidays—booking early helps secure better value and a well-maintained vehicle.
Can I drive in Pakistan with only my foreign license?
Pakistani law requires an International Driving Permit (IDP) alongside your home license. Police enforce this strictly at checkpoints. Without an IDP, you risk fines or rental cancellation. Obtain your permit before travel from an authorized body in your home country to ensure legal compliance while driving.
Are automatic transmission vehicles available for rent?
Automatic rental cars are less common and cost 15–25% more than manual cars. Availability is limited, so request one clearly during booking. If you’re not comfortable with a stick shift, secure an automatic early to avoid last-minute issues.
Does basic insurance cover enough for driving in Pakistan?
Basic coverage usually includes third-party liability but has high deductibles ($180–$360) for damage or theft. Given road conditions and traffic behavior, upgrading to comprehensive protection ($8–$15/day) is sensible. Most international travel policies exclude Pakistan—verify your coverage before declining supplemental insurance at pickup.
Can I drive my rental between major Pakistani cities?
Highways like M-2 (Islamabad–Lahore) are well-paved and safe for intercity travel. The 350-km drive takes 4–5 hours. Expect tolls ($1–$2) and frequent police checks—carry your documents. Avoid driving at night due to unlit obstacles and livestock on roads. Plan fuel stops; stations are common, but quality varies.
What is the standard fuel policy for rentals in Pakistan?*
Most rentals use a “full-to-full” policy—you receive the car full and must return it full. Petrol costs around $0.70 per liter. Refuel at reputable stations like PSO or Shell to avoid adulterated fuel. Always keep your receipt; without it, you may be charged a $5–$10 convenience fee upon return.
Is parking easily manageable in cities like Lahore or Karachi?
Parking is challenging—street spaces are limited and often chaotic. Malls and hotels offer paid lots for $0.20–$0.75/hour. Avoid leaving bags or electronics visible; petty theft can occur in busy areas. Islamabad has slightly better parking, but always lock doors and use secure lots when available during your rental.
Is a 4x4 necessary for visiting northern Pakistan?
If you plan to visit Hunza, Skardu, or Gilgit, a 4x4 with high clearance is essential. Mountain roads are steep, unpaved, and prone to landslides. Standard sedans aren’t permitted on many routes. Confirm with your provider that your vehicle and insurance cover northern travel before departure—breakdowns in remote areas are serious.
Can I rent a car without a credit card in Pakistan?
Most providers require a credit card for a $360–$720 security hold. Debit cards or cash deposits are rarely accepted due to fraud risk. Without a credit card, you may need a local guarantor or choose a daily chauffeur service instead. Plan your payment method before arrival to avoid rental denial.
Are child safety seats provided with car rentals in Pakistan?
Child seats are rarely available and not required by law. If traveling with young kids, bring your own universal-fit seat. Most cars lack modern anchor systems, so ensure yours secures with seatbelts. Given road conditions, proper restraints are a safety necessity, not a luxury.
Do foreign renters need a local contact to book a car rental in Pakistan?
Many providers ask for your hotel address or a local reference, especially for rentals over 72 hours. This is a standard verification step. Provide your accommodation details during booking to speed up the process. A confirmed local address helps build trust and avoids delays at pickup.
What should I do if the rental vehicle breaks down?*
Call the provider immediately—assistance is reliable in cities but scarce in rural areas. Carry water, a flashlight, and a power bank. Breakdowns are common due to vehicle age and road stress. Choosing a newer model reduces risk, and having emergency contacts ensures faster help during your trip in Pakistan.
Is renting a car worth it for traveling in Pakistan?
If you’re visiting multiple cities or northern destinations, renting provides flexibility and saves hours compared to public transport. Highways are efficient, and fuel costs remain moderate. Renting a car makes exploring heritage sites, mountains, and coastal areas far more convenient, especially on tight schedules.
