Terms & Conditions
Last updated: July 2026
1. Booking & Confirmation
A booking with Kigali Car Rental is confirmed once we send written confirmation by WhatsApp, phone or email. Bookings can be made online at kigalicarrental.site/book-now, by phone/WhatsApp on +250 787 619 387, or by email at info@kigalicarrental.site. We confirm all requests within 30 minutes during business hours.
2. Eligibility & Documents
Renters must be at least 23 years old and hold a valid driving licence (an International Driving Permit is recommended for foreign visitors) plus a passport or national ID. Drivers without a full licence cannot be added to a self-drive rental.
3. Payment & Deposit
We accept MTN Mobile Money, Airtel Money, bank transfer and cash. A refundable security deposit is required for self-drive rentals and is returned in full at the end of the rental period, subject to the vehicle being returned in its original condition with a full fuel tank.
4. Insurance
All rentals include third-party insurance. The renter is responsible for any damage caused by negligence, reckless driving, or driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, which is not covered by insurance.
5. Fuel Policy
Vehicles are provided with a full tank of fuel and must be returned with a full tank. A refuelling charge plus service fee applies if the vehicle is returned with less fuel than at pickup.
6. Cancellations
Cancellations made more than 48 hours before the pickup time receive a full refund of any deposit paid. Cancellations within 48 hours of pickup may be subject to a cancellation fee to cover vehicle preparation costs.
7. Cross-Border Travel
Cross-border travel to Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya, Burundi or DRC must be approved in advance so we can arrange the correct permits and cross-border insurance. Unauthorised cross-border travel voids insurance coverage.
