Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Sabah car reservation?
Don’t stress. You should be eligible for a complete refund if you notify us more than six hours before the arranged pickup time. Your itinerary contains details about this, as does our Customer Service Portal. Not all prepaid rentals result in a refund though, so you may want to go over your car’s cancellation policy.
What types of cars can I rent in Sabah?
Full-size rides, compact cars, powerful SUVs … Pick up the keys to just about any kind of vehicle you like! Economy is the most commonly booked rental vehicle category in Sabah. Zippy, with great mileage and a snap to park, these wheels make getting around busy city streets a delight. Maybe the best part? Your wallet will love them. That means you’ll have more cash to splash on other things, like discovering as much of this awesome destination as possible.
How do I find the best car rental deals in Sabah with Expedia?
Expedia makes it easy to compare prices, offers and providers, and to check reviews. Bundle your Sabah car rental with flight or hotel bookings and you’ll make even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Sabah?
You have to be at least 21. But there are several age-related restrictions you should keep in mind before booking your Sabah wheels. If you’re a younger motorist, most rental suppliers will charge an extra fee and limit the kinds of vehicles you’re able to rent. The exact surcharge, and which ages it applies to, differs between outlets. Take a few moments to compare the rules.
What do you need to rent a car in Sabah?
The essentials are a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name. Most car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of other coverage if you choose to opt out. Check your policy terms and conditions to avoid any issues.
Can I drive in Sabah with my U.S. Driver's license?
You’ll require an International Driving Permit, in addition to a valid U.S. License, to go road-tripping in Sabah. This document lets you legally drive in most countries, so apply for one in the weeks ahead of your trip.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Sabah?
Yes, so you won’t have to rebook a rental car halfway through your vacation. Click through to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your travel dates and book a ride to call your own for the length of your escape.
Where can I find a Sabah car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the car rental companies that are in Sabah. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you’ve found a place that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, be aware that additional costs may apply. Do some research into any extra charges before you collect the car.
