Documents

What documents do I need to hire a car in Tunisia?

To hire with Car Hire Tunisia (reservations.tn) you need: 1) your original driving licence from any country, held for at least 2 years; 2) a valid passport or ID; 3) to be at least 21. No credit card: you pay when you collect the keys.

What's the minimum age to hire a car in Tunisia?

At Car Hire Tunisia (reservations.tn), the minimum age is 21, with a licence held for at least 2 years. For SUVs and luxury cars you need to be 25. Between 21 and 25 a young-driver surcharge may apply; the agency confirms it before you book.

Is a UK driving licence valid in Tunisia?

Yes. To rent with Car Hire Tunisia (reservations.tn) your UK licence is enough: the agency doesn't ask for an International Driving Permit. It must be valid and held for at least 2 years. For police checks on the road, the UK government advises carrying a 1968 IDP with it; you get it at a Post Office before you fly.

Can I hire a car with a non-European licence?

Yes. Car Hire Tunisia (reservations.tn) accepts driving licences from every country, in any alphabet. Just show the original when you collect the car; no International Driving Permit is asked for. You need to have held it for at least 2 years.

Payment

Do I need a credit card to hire a car in Tunisia?

No — you can hire with us without a credit card. We accept cash, debit card, or bank transfer. Payment can be made on arrival, when you collect the vehicle.

How much does it cost to hire a car in Tunisia?

From 99 DT a day (about €29) for a city car, with unlimited mileage and basic insurance included. The price follows the month: about 100 DT a day from November to March and about 180 DT in July and August for the same city car; SUVs and 7-seaters from 135 DT a day, 9-seat minibuses from 400 DT. You get 5% off from 7 days and 10% off from 14 days. The exact price for your dates is on our prices page, month by month.

Is there a deposit?

Yes, a refundable deposit is paid when you collect the car: €500 for small and compact cars, €700 for SUVs (like the MG ZS), saloons and 7 or 9-seaters, €3,000 for premium cars (Mercedes, BMW). You can pay it in cash or by card, and it is returned in full when the car comes back in good condition.

Can I pay in pounds or euros?

Payments are made in Tunisian dinar (TND). You can withdraw dinars from ATMs or exchange currency at the airport. Prices are shown in euros on the site to help you plan your budget (1 € ≈ 3.4 TND).

Do you offer cheap car hire across Tunisia?

Yes. Our rates are among the most affordable in Tunisia, priced in Tunisian dinar with no hidden fees and free airport delivery. Message us your dates on WhatsApp (+216 93 390 758) for our best all-inclusive price.

Do I need a credit card to rent a car in Tunisia?

Not at Car Hire Tunisia (a reservations.tn service): no credit card is needed to book. You pay when you collect the car, in dinars, with a refundable deposit of €500 to €3,000 depending on the car, in cash or by card. Elsewhere it is often required: Europcar at Tunis-Carthage asks for a credit card in the main driver's name, and Discover Cars advises a physical credit card in the driver's name for the deposit (those companies' help pages, September 2026).

Insurance

Is insurance included in the rental price?

Yes. The price includes third-party liability and collision damage waiver (CDW). The refundable deposit works as the excess: €500 for small and compact cars, €700 for SUVs, saloons and 7–9 seaters, €3,000 for premium cars, cash or card. If there is damage, the repair is taken from the deposit. The "Deposit reduction" option (15 DT/day) halves the deposit.

How does the excess work in case of an accident?

The deposit you pay at pickup acts as the excess: €500 for small and compact cars, €700 for SUVs (like the MG ZS), saloons and 7 or 9-seaters, €3,000 for premium cars (Mercedes, BMW). If there is damage, it covers repairs up to that amount; it is returned in full if the car comes back in good condition. No credit card is needed to book. Tyres, windows and the underside of the car are usually excluded.

What should I do in case of an accident or breakdown?

In case of an accident: 1) Call our 24/7 assistance line on +216 93 390 758, 2) Fill in an accident report, 3) Take photos. In case of a breakdown: contact us and we'll send a replacement vehicle or recovery as quickly as possible.

Are tyres and windscreen covered by insurance?

No. Basic insurance does not cover tyres, the windscreen and windows, the underside or the interior of the car: that damage is the renter's responsibility. Check the car with the agency when you collect it and take photos.

Service

Do you deliver to the airport at night?

Yes, we offer a 24/7 service at every Tunisian airport (Tunis-Carthage, Enfidha, Monastir, Djerba). Our team meets you on arrival, even for late-night flights. No surcharge for night deliveries.

Can I return the car in a different city?

Yes, you can return the car in another city or airport. A relocation fee may apply depending on the distance; the exact amount is confirmed on WhatsApp (+216 93 390 758) before you book, never added at the counter.

Is the mileage unlimited?

Yes, all our rates include unlimited mileage. You can drive across the whole of Tunisia without counting kilometres — perfect for a road trip: Tunis - Hammamet - Sousse - Djerba.

Can I cross the border with the rental car?

No, it is strictly forbidden to leave Tunisian territory with a rental vehicle. The rental contract only covers driving within Tunisia. Any attempt to cross a border voids the insurance.

What happens if my flight is delayed?

No worries! Our team tracks flight times in real time. If your flight is delayed, we'll be waiting for you at no extra charge. Let us know via WhatsApp on +216 93 390 758 if you can. The service is available 24/7 at every airport.

Can I change or cancel a booking?

Yes. Nothing is prepaid, so changing or cancelling costs nothing: just tell us on WhatsApp (+216 93 390 758) as early as you can, so the agency can offer the car to someone else.

Do you offer airport transfers without a rental?

Yes: private airport transfers with a driver, at a fixed price per vehicle (not per person), from 130 DT. The driver meets you at arrivals and waits if your flight is late. Prices and booking: reservations.tn/transfert-aeroport or WhatsApp (+216 93 390 758).

What's the fuel policy?

The car comes with a fuel level written on the contract and you return it with the same level. No hidden fuel charges.

Is there a fee for returning the car outside office hours?

No, we offer a 24/7 service with no surcharge for night returns. You can return the vehicle at any time at the airports. For city returns outside office hours, please let us know in advance.

Who handles my booking?

Your booking is handled by reservations.tn, the platform that connects travellers with verified Tunisian rental agencies. We find the car at a partner agency, confirm on WhatsApp, and you pay the agency when you collect the car.

How are you different from Kayak or Discover Cars?

Kayak is a search engine: it sends you to book on another site, whose terms apply. Discover Cars is an online broker where a credit card in the driver's name is usually needed for the deposit. With reservations.tn, one request is enough, no credit card to book, and a verified local agency hands you the car. The full, sourced comparison is at reservations.tn/en/compare-car-rental-tunisia.

Is the second driver or the child seat extra?

No, both are free on every rental, whatever the length. The second driver is added to the contract (their licence is checked when you collect the car); for the child seat, tell us the child's age so the agency prepares the right seat.

Vehicle

Do you have automatic cars?

Yes, we offer automatic vehicles across several categories: city cars, compacts, SUVs, and luxury. Book ahead, as stock is limited in high season.

Do you offer 7-seater cars?

Yes: 7-seaters such as the Suzuki Ertiga, Citroën Berlingo and Chery Tiggo 8, from 135 DT a day in low season. Great for families and groups; book early for July and August.

What fuel type do your cars use?

Most of our cars run on unleaded petrol; some SUVs and vans run on diesel. The fuel type is written on your contract and next to the filler cap.

Are the cars recent?

Yes. Our partner agencies rent recent, well-maintained models, all with air conditioning. The exact model is confirmed with your booking.
