How old do you have to be to rent a car in Chiang Rai?
The minimum age to rent a vehicle in Chiang Rai is 21. A young driver surcharge will apply, so check before booking and factor in any additional costs.

What side of the road do you drive on in Chiang Rai?
Unlike the U.S, people in Chiang Rai drive on the left-hand side of the road. Having the driver’s seat and some controls on the opposite side can also take a bit of getting used to. Spend some time familiarizing yourself with the vehicle and its quirks before driving away.

Where can I find a Chiang Rai car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to check the age policy of the Chiang Rai holiday home suppliers you’re considering. If you’re under 25 be mindful that some will charge extra fees. It’s handy to know this in advance so you can budget accordingly. Each holiday home car company has its own terms and conditions for young drivers, so be sure to do your research.
