Important information about Vientiane car rentals

How do I get from Vientiane Wattay International Airport (VTE) to the car rental center?

Upon landing at Vientiane Wattay International Airport (VTE), you will enjoy convenient and flexible movement to various parts of the city by renting a car from one of the Vientiane car rentals. The airport does not have on-site car rental agencies, but there is a nearby rental car center, which is one of the most popular pickup locations. You can connect to this rental car center conveniently from the airport by utilizing Airport Shuttle services. These shuttles are free and take about 10-15 minutes to arrive at the rental car center from that airport. There is a shuttle leaving the airport's Arrivals Terminal to the rental car center every 20 minutes. In addition to the airport shuttles, major car companies such as Enterprise and Hertz avail courtesy to ferry their clients from the airport to the rental car center. The third alternative means of transport from VTE to car rental is by taxi.

What documentation do I need to rent a car in Vientiane?

For you to rent a car at any location in Vientiane, you must be 23 years old or older. Two documents are a mandatory requirement for anyone renting a car of any type in the city. The first one is a valid driver's license, which must remain valid for the whole period that one intends to use the rental car. The second document is a credit card or debit card. The renter's name must be the one appearing on both the license and the card. For foreign drivers, two additional documents are mandatory. The first one is a passport with the names in it the same as those on the driver's license. Foreign drivers also need to have an International Driver's Permit in addition to the driver's license of their respective nations. In some cases, car companies will require foreign drivers to have an official translation of the license. This is particularly the case if the license is not in English.

What driving laws should I keep an eye out for in Vientiane?

When driving in Vientiane, one of the general laws you need to remember is that you will be driving your rental car on the right-hand side of the road. This, therefore, implies that you will be overtaking from the left. If you are a consumer of alcohol, the laws in Vientiane require that drivers should not have a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) exceeding 0.04%. Child seat laws are the other important thing you must remember while in Vientiane, especially if you will be driving accompanied by your young ones. These laws require that any child below the age of 8 years must always be in an appropriate child restraint system. This could be a booster seat, a child car seat, or an infant seat. Those above 8 years, just like the rest of the adults, must ensure they are in a seat belt at all times, whether they are in the front seats or back seats.

Can I drive to other states, regions, or countries with a rental car from Vientiane?

Apart from driving your rental car in Vientiane, you can also go to other regions within Laos as well as the bordering countries. For instance, Savannakhet and Paksé are among the cities to which you can conveniently drive your rental car from Vientiane. You can also cross the border to Thailand with your rental car from Vientiane. However, you will incur a cross-border charge any time you drive your car to Thailand. The one-way car rental option offered by all the major Vientiane car rentals further enhances the convenience of traveling to other regions or countries with a rental car from Vientiane. If you choose this option, you can drop off your rental car at a location far away from the pickup location without incurring any additional costs. Whether you are planning to connect to other cities in Laos or cross the border to Thailand, you must communicate with your respective car agency in advance.
