Car hire in Oman: FAQs

The types of documents you’ll need to rent a car in Oman depend on the car rental company you go with. But in general, you will need a valid drivers license, ID and passport. Once you’ve booked car hire in Oman, you can easily get in touch with your chosen provider to find out.

It’s easy to hire a car in Oman. First, you need to decide where in Oman you want to pick up your car from.

It depends where in Oman you want to visit. The most popular place to go is Muscat. On average, it costs £32 per day to rent a car there. The cheapest price we could find is £11 per day.

Most car hire deals in Oman include basic insurance cover. You don’t need to add excess insurance, but it’s worth thinking about.

In Oman, the excess (what you pay if the car gets damaged or stolen) ranges from £112 to £876, depending on who you book with. Excess insurance prices in Oman also vary by company.

You can buy excess insurance separately, which is usually cheaper than buying it through the car hire company.
It depends. Some car hire companies in Oman accept debit cards, others require a credit card. Check the company’s accepted payment methods before you book.

Either way, the card needs to be in the main driver's name and you'll need enough money on it to cover a security deposit. You’ll get that back when you return the car.
If you've booked car hire with free cancellation, you can usually cancel or change your booking without paying a fee. The time you have to cancel depends on the car hire company, but it's typically around 48 hours before pick-up. If you cancel after that, you may be charged.

If your booking doesn't include free cancellation, you'll need to check the car hire company's policy. Depending on when you cancel, you might need to pay a cancellation fee or you won’t get a refund.
We couldn’t find any electric car hire deals in Oman. More EVs are becoming available, so that could change in the future. If you're still looking for a lower-emission option, you can compare hybrid cars on Skyscanner.
The easiest way to compare car hire in Oman is to look at lots of companies at the same time, rather than checking each one individually.

Skyscanner is a comparison website. We search 25 car hire companies and compare prices across 238 available cars – so you don't have to.
