How do I find the best car rental deals in South Thailand with Expedia?

How old do you have to be to rent a car in South Thailand?
You need to be at least 21 to pick up the keys to a rental car in South Thailand. Bear in mind that young drivers may be restricted to renting from a few car categories, such as compact, economy and medium size. Higher age limits usually apply for specialty and luxury vehicles. Many companies will also charge an additional fee for young renters. Look up the rules before clicking the book button and factor any extra fees into your vacation budget.
What do you need to rent a car in South Thailand?
Generally, you’ll need a current driver’s license and a credit card in the same name when picking up the car. Proof of coverage may also be needed if you decide to opt out of the company’s insurance policy. These requirements may differ between rental outlets, so be sure to read the fine print.
Can I drive in South Thailand with my U.S. Driver's license?
Many places overseas require an International Driving Permit for foreigners to drive legally, so arrange one if you plan on traveling by car in South Thailand. This permit is to be used with your U.S. License. We highly recommend obtaining this permit before leaving the U.S.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in South Thailand?
Check out our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and then book your ideal ride. Whether you’re staying put in South Thailand or plan to journey beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term rental at an amazing rate.
Where can I find a South Thailand car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a younger driver looking to rent a car in South Thailand, you’ll need to check the policies of the rental companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25 some may not. There may be extra fees if you’re between 21 and 24 years of age. To avoid any surprise fees and charges on pickup, make sure you know exactly what to expect.
