Tips for renting a car at Penang International Airport
Before you rent
Penang International Airport is well-equipped for international travelers. Before you arrive, it is a good idea to check and book with the car rental company you want to use. This will ensure that you get the best price and that the car you want is available when you arrive.
When you collect your vehicle
First check the paperwork to ensure your rental dates and times are correct. Then check the car thoroughly for any existing damage and make sure this is noted on the paperwork or take photographs yourself and send them to the car hire company to avoid being charged for any existing damage at the end of your rental period.
When you return your vehicle
It is best to return your car to Penang on the same petrol level that it was given to you and to allow plenty of time to return the car and get to your departure gate. Most rental companies will ask you to return the car to the same location where you picked it up.
Vehicle inspection on return
Complete a vehicle check. It is important that a MalaysiaRentacar representative is present when you return your car. This is so that they can check the car for any damage and confirm the petrol level. If you find that the car hire rep is not available, take photos of the car and petrol level for your own records.
