FAQ

1. What is the minimum age to rent a car in Ho Chi Minh City?

The minimum age to rent a car in Ho Chi Minh City is typically 21 years. Drivers aged 21–24 may face a young driver surcharge of €10–30 per day. Some premium and luxury vehicles require the driver to be at least 25. Always check the specific rental company's age policy before booking.

2. When is the cheapest time to rent a car in Ho Chi Minh City?

Car rental prices in Ho Chi Minh City are generally lowest during the off-season (November–March for European destinations). Booking 4–8 weeks in advance can also secure significantly lower rates. Avoid major holidays and local events when demand peaks. Comparing prices on Cars Scanner helps find the best deals year-round.

3. What happens if my flight is delayed and the rental office is closed?

Most major rental companies at airports in Vietnam have extended operating hours or 24-hour counters. If your flight is delayed, contact the rental company as soon as possible. Many offer a grace period of 1–2 hours. If the delay is significant, they can usually reschedule your pick-up to the next day without penalty — just call ahead.

4. What is an excess (deductible) and how does it work?

The excess (or deductible) is the maximum amount you'd pay out of pocket if the car is damaged or stolen. In Vietnam, this typically ranges from €500 to €2,000 depending on the vehicle class. You can reduce or eliminate the excess by purchasing additional coverage such as Super CDW or booking full-coverage insurance through Cars Scanner.

5. What should I do if I get a traffic fine?

If you receive a traffic fine while driving in Vietnam, the rental company will typically forward it to you along with an administration fee (€20–50). Pay the fine promptly to avoid escalation. If you disagree, you can appeal through the issuing authority. Always photograph any unclear signage as evidence. Keep your rental agreement handy for reference.

6. What should I do in case of an accident with the rental car?

If you have an accident in Ho Chi Minh City:

  1. Ensure everyone's safety and call emergency services if needed (112 in Europe)
  2. Document everything — take photos of damage, the scene, and other vehicles
  3. Fill in the accident report form (usually found in the glove compartment)
  4. Contact the rental company immediately
  5. Do not admit fault or sign documents you don't understand

Your rental insurance will cover damages within the agreed terms.

7. Can I return the rental car in a different city or country?

Yes, one-way rentals are available with most major companies in Vietnam. Returning within the same country usually costs €30–100 extra. Cross-border returns may be restricted or carry significant additional fees — check the rental terms carefully. Always confirm the one-way policy when booking.

8. Where can I park in Ho Chi Minh City and how much does it cost?

Parking options in Ho Chi Minh City include:

  • Street parking — metered zones, typically €1–3/hour
  • Public car parks — €5–20/day depending on location
  • Hotel parking — often available for guests at €10–25/night

Always check signage carefully. Blue zones require a parking disc, and illegally parked cars may be towed. Many city centres have restricted access zones.
