What Driving License do I need to rent a car in the Emirates?

To rent a car in the UAE, you will need a valid driving license from your home country or an International Driving Permit (IDP). If your license is in the English language and uses Latin alphabets, you may not need an IDP. It is worth noting that the minimum age requirement to rent a car in Dubai is typically 21 years, but our car rental company may require renters to be at least 25 years old. . Before renting a car, it is essential to familiarize yourself with the local driving rules and regulations. In the UAE, driving is done on the right-hand side of the road, and seat belts are mandatory for both the driver and passengers. Speed limits are strictly enforced, and using a mobile phone while driving is prohibited. It is highly recommended to carry essential documents such as your passport, driving license, and IDP with you at all times when driving in Dubai. Additionally, you should have a valid travel insurance policy that covers driving in a foreign country.
