How old do you have to be to rent a car in Ko Pha-ngan?

Higher age limits apply for large vehicles like premium SUVs and luxury models.
What do you need to rent a car in Ko Pha-ngan?
The main things are a valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of alternative coverage if you choose to opt out. We recommend checking with your rental agency to avoid any issues.
What side of the road do you drive on in Ko Pha-ngan?
