Rent a Car · Guide
For a self-drive rental in Islamabad you typically need a valid driving licence, your CNIC (or passport for overseas visitors) and a refundable security deposit — exact requirements are set by each business and confirmed before you book.
Most self-drive businesses ask for a valid driving licence, an original CNIC (or passport, and sometimes an international driving permit for overseas visitors), and a refundable security deposit held for the hire period.
Some may take a utility bill or a second ID as added security, especially for newer or higher-value cars. Ask exactly what is needed when you enquire so you can bring it on the day.
A refundable deposit is standard and returned when you bring the car back in the same condition; the amount depends on the vehicle and the length of hire.
The usual fuel policy is “same-to-same” — return it with the fuel level you received. Confirm the policy in writing so there are no surprises at the end of the rental.
