To drive in Saudi Arabia, a valid driver's license from country of residence is required. An International driver's license is highly recommended for anyone live outside Saudi Arabia as some car hire company will require international drivers to present an IDP. Driver's license printed with non Roman Alphabet must present an IDP together with the original driver’s license.
The license should be held for at least 1 or 2 years(according to car hire company) with no major endorsements.
*Attention! Some car hire companies would have different requirements. Please check Terms and Conditions during the booking process.

Frequently asked questions
Q1.What is an insurance excess?
The excess is the amount you'll only be liable for in case of damage(under Collision Damage Waiver) or theft(under Theft Protection) of the vehicle. Information about the excess will be clearly stated in the price inclusion when you reserve a car on QEEQ.
Q2. How can I add an addtional driver?
You are advised to make a request upon your arrival at the rental counter. Additional charge per day will incur unless '1 Additional Driver Included' is stipulated on the rental. Please note that the same licence and age requirement applys to the additonal driver. The addtional driver is supposed to present the required licence document along with the main driver at pickup.

QEEQ will show you the car offers available at your chosen time on the search results. However, pick-up or drop-off out of general opening hours may subject to an extra fee unless self-service pick-up or drop-off is available. After you reserve a car on QEEQ, we will inform you of specific policy of the car hire company by email.
