Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Ethekwini car reservation?
No problems! If you can cancel your prepaid rental at least six hours ahead of the pickup time, you're likely to qualify for a full refund. It's a good idea to read your car's cancellation policy as there are some exceptions. Head to our Customer Service Portal for more information.
What types of cars can I rent in Ethekwini?
Small in size but filled with features, minis are the top rental category in Ethekwini. They're the ideal choice for short journeys around town. With excellent fuel-efficiency, this affordable car promises even more savings. Need a roomier ride? We also have full-size vehicles, SUVs and premiums in our range.
How do I find the best car rental deals in Ethekwini with Expedia?
Getting the best deal on your Ethekwini rental car is a cinch with Expedia. Choose your preferred car class, add in a few more details and compare prices across big-name suppliers. Why not add flights and hotels to your booking? You'll score terrific discounts when you create a vacation package.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Ethekwini?
In Ethekwini, the rule is generally 18 years of age and over. Most companies will charge additional fees for young drivers, which can vary based on the rental location. Rental policies for young drivers may include restrictions for certain vehicles, such as specialty cars, and require inclusive insurance to be taken out. It's always a good idea to read the fine print before locking in your ride.
What do you need to rent a car in Ethekwini?
Any rental company you choose will need these two things --- a current driver's license and a credit card in your name. If you want to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.
Can I drive in Ethekwini with my U.S. Driver's license?
Yes you can, provided that your license is valid. But consider getting an International Driving Permit regardless. They're fairly easy to organize, and with one, you'll be able to drive in other places if your vacation plans take you beyond Ethekwini.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Ethekwini?
Click on our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and then lock in a ride that suits. Whether you're staying in Ethekwini or venturing far beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at a fantastic rate.
Where can I find an Ethekwini car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental companies, so be prepared to do a little homework. Found an Ethekwini supplier that does rent to drivers under 25? Great! Just be aware that an extra charge often applies to drivers between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're interested in will have all the details you need.
