Before driving your luxury rental car in Dubai, the city has strict driving rules to adhere to. The legal driving age in the city is 18 years old.

To be sure, check with the local Department of Motor Vehicles for any changes in laws.

Will I need a special driver’s license or permit to drive a rental car in Dubai if I’m visiting from another country?

For Dubai car rentals, you must be 18 years old to rent a car. A valid driver’s license is required from your home country. Be sure to check the list of countries that Dubai excepts a driver’s license from. If your country is not on the list, you will need to get an International Driving Permit in your country before you travel to Dubai. Drivers also need a credit card or debit card for rental cars in Dubai. Also, there may be a hold placed on the card until the car is returned. Speed limits are enforced in Dubai, and fines are steep. Use of mobile phones is prohibited while operating a car and seatbelts are mandatory. The other thing to keep in mind while driving your electric car rental in Dubai is that fines are steep and in some cases, your driver’s license can be revoked for a period of time.

They refused to present a car. My licence was not accepted. I don't understand why. Because my driving licence always accepted in whole Europe. I'm a traveller renting motorcycles and cars everywhere. But here they did not accept my driving licence. They decided that my licence is not international)). If my license is not international how other countries supply with motorcycles and cars.

The pickup took around an hour, including redoing virtually everything in my online purchase and signing all new contracts, after I believed I had already signed and paid for everything. Also I was told that the insurance I purchased from Kayak did not cover a bunch of things and that I needed a different credit card to secure a large deposit to cover potential damages not covered by that insurance.

Alamo failed to clearly communicate that they do NOT have a pick-up/drop-off desk in Terminal 2! Although the reservation said that it was "Airport Pickup," and the fine print DID say they had desks in T1 and T3, it did not give sufficient heads up that T2 is very far from T1 and T3, and there is no airport shuttle, and no way to walk there from T2. This meant we had to walk around for 30-45 min figuring out what to do, and in the end, we had to book an airport taxi (with its expensive airport fee) BOTH for pick-up AND drop-off, which added to our expenses and even worse, added to our inconvenience and time. When I told the staff, they were very apologetic, but they were unable to help offer us a ride and did not take much responsibility at all.

The Thrifty staff was very unhelpful and showed he had no intention to even guide me. The drop off procedure was also very complicated and when I asked for help, he simply told me he had otherwise customers to attend, bearing in mind that this was about 10-15 minutes from the closing time so very unlikely there will be customers picking up cars.

Car was not ready on time, I had to wait to receive it, and the staff in the office did not bother to have it brought down until AFTER I was done with the paperwork. The car was relatively clean, but they used a cleaner that left residue on the navigation screen that I could not get off. The car had 1/4 tank of gas, but the paperwork said it was full. When I brought it back, they charged me for a tank of gas because I returned it as they delivered it to me. I won't rent from Enterprise at Dubai Terminal 3 again. Ever.
