Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Chinatown car reservation?
That won't be a problem. If you can cancel your rental more than six hours prior to the collection time, you'll most likely receive a complete refund. Be sure to scan your cancellation policy as there are some exceptions. Hop on our Customer Service Portal if you still have queries.
What types of cars can I rent in Chinatown?
Bustling city streets and narrow parking spaces are no match for an economy car — the most sought-after type of rental in Chinatown. Grab the wheel of one of these and navigate traffic effortlessly. Reliable, affordable and good on gas, these small cars pack a punch. But Chinatown can be explored in almost any sort of rental you like. Compacts, premiums and SUVs are some other options to choose from.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Chinatown?
The minimum age to rent a car in Chinatown is 21. A young driver surcharge generally applies, so check before booking and take into account any extra costs. There could also be restrictions on the types of vehicles available to young drivers. For example, some providers will only rent out small to medium-sized cars to less-experienced motorists. Requirements may vary between providers, so be sure to read the fine print.
What do you need to rent a car in Chinatown?
Be prepared to present a valid driver's licence and a credit card when you get to the rental counter. Before pickup, check with your selected rental company whether anything else is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of auto insurance.
What side of the road do you drive on in Chinatown?
In Chinatown, like all of Malaysia, motorists drive on the left-hand side of the road. Take it slow at first and build confidence driving on the left if it's your first time.

Where can I find a Chinatown car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a young driver looking for a car rental in Chinatown, we recommend checking the policies of the rental companies you're interested in.
