PATTAYA VEHICLE RENTALS: CARS MOTORCYCLES & SCOOTERS

You will need to present your original passport (we only take a copy, your original stays with you) and a valid driving license. For rent motorcycles and scooters, a license permitting motorcycle operation is required. An International Driving Permit (IDP) is highly recommended for driving legally in Thailand and to avoid potential fines from police.

No! At BEST MOTORS, we DO NOT require your passport as a deposit for any car or bike rental. We accept a fully refundable security deposit in cash (any major currency is fine) or by other agreed methods.

You can book your vehicle by contacting BEST MOTORS via WhatsApp at +66 096 243 1968, emailing us at BestMotorsPattaya@gmail.com, or visiting our office at Best Motors Jomtien Second Road, Bun Kanchana Alley. You can also use the "BOOK NOW" feature on our website.

Pattaya has busy traffic. We advise all renters to drive cautiously, always wear a helmet (provided), and be aware of their surroundings. Familiarize yourself with local traffic rules. For beginners, we can offer some basic guidance.

The insurance included with the rental depends on the type of vehicle you rented:

This comprehensive insurance covers damage to the rented car (subject to the deductible), as well as third-party bodily injury and property damage. You will be responsible for deposit amount of any repair costs to the rented car in the event of an accident where you are at fault or the cause is unknown.
