Car Hire in Sharjah, Sharjah

If you’re booking hired cars in Sharjah, you should know that some car rental agencies, like Budget and Thrifty, allow crossing the border into Oman only. To do so, you must request permission in advance from your rental company, and they will provide you with a "No Objection" letter written in Arabic. Your exit and entry point in this case must be through the Al Wajaja-Hatta border. You will also be required to purchase Oman car insurance, and there will be a daily surcharge during your out of the country. Note that Budget Rent a Car will not allow you to drive your car rental into the city of Salalah, Oman. Contact your car rental company ahead of time to make sure border crossings are permitted with a Sharjah rental car.

If you’re looking for hiring a car in Sharjah with an alternative method of payment, such as a debit card or cash, you will have a tough time renting a car. In general, all companies, even for cheap hired cars in Sharjah, require a credit card for your pick-up and security deposit. However, there are some companies—for example, Hertz—that allow final payments with debit cards, but do not allow them for security deposits. Credit cards accepted at car hire locations in Sharjah are mainly Visa and MasterCard, although some locations, like Hertz, accept American Express and Diners Club cards. In general, the credit card must be in the same name as the main driver named in your Sharjah car rental reservation. We recommend contacting your car rental company in advance of your trip to confirm exactly what forms of payment are allowed in Sharjah.

It’s always a good idea to familiarise yourself with the driving rules of any new city you may be visiting, whether you’re planning to drive a cheap car rental or a luxury car rental in Sharjah. For example, talking or texting on your mobile phone while driving is strictly prohibited in the United Arab Emirates. We also suggest making sure that you park your car legally because they are very strict about how and where vehicles are parked throughout Sharjah. Furthermore, never drink and drive, no matter how little alcohol you consume. In United Arab Emirates, they do not have a blood alcohol content limit; your level must be zero when behind the wheel. Consequences for getting caught include a find and possible jail time.
