Question 1

When is the peak season for car rental in Thailand?

Accepted Answer

The peak season for car rentals in Thailand is mainly concentrated in the cool season (November to February), national holidays (such as Songkran), and global tourist seasons (such as Christmas and New Year). We strongly recommend that you book 1.5 to 3 months in advance.

Main Peak Seasons:

Cool Season: November to February of the following year

Songkran Festival: Around April 13-15

Summer and Winter Vacations: July and August are Taiwan's summer vacation months.

New Year Holidays: Late January to early February, Taiwan's New Year long weekend (subject to the current year's calendar).

Question 2

When booking a car rental in Thailand, is the payment made in Thai Baht or New Taiwan Dollars?

Accepted Answer

When booking a car rental in Thailand, the transaction will be settled in New Taiwan Dollars (TWD).

The reference prices you see on the car rental page are all in New Taiwan Dollars (TWD), and the final bill will also be settled in New Taiwan Dollars (TWD).

Question 3

What documents do I need to prepare when renting a car in Thailand?

Accepted Answer

When picking up your vehicle in Thailand, all drivers must present original copies of the required documents.

Thai drivers should bring: (1) Thai national identity card, (2) a valid Thai driver's license, and (3) the credit card used for booking.

Non-Thai nationals must bring: (1) passport, (2) the credit card used for booking, and provide one of the following three valid driving permits: (a) your original driver's license from your home country along with a valid International Driving Permit (IDP); (b) a valid driver's license issued by an ASEAN member state; or (c) a legally obtained Thai driver's license. Please ensure your documents meet the above requirements; incomplete or ineligible documents will prevent you from picking up your vehicle.

Question 4

What fees are included in the car rental prices in Thailand displayed on the website?

Accepted Answer

The total rental price shown on gogoout includes all necessary costs for renting a car in Thailand, including Thai consumption tax and all items covered by the rental insurance for your chosen vehicle.

Items not included: Fuel (you will need to refuel yourself), highway tolls, parking fees, optional accessories (such as child seats), and advanced insurance (Super Collision-Drop Waiver (SCDW)).

Question 5

When booking a car rental in Thailand, can the credit card holder for payment be different from the driver?

Accepted Answer

No! According to international standards in the Thai car rental industry, to ensure identity verification and subsequent liability, the credit card holder making online payments must be the same person as the "primary driver" registered at the time of vehicle pickup.

Therefore, counter staff will strictly enforce the "three-in-one" principle, meaning the English spelling on your passport, international driving permit, and credit card must be exactly the same.

If you have any special circumstances, please be sure to contact [gogoout customer service] before booking so we can confirm the specific policies of the rental company on your behalf.
