Car insurance in the UAE
UAEDubai
If you rent a car in Dubai, is insurance included in the rental price? And what does this insurance represent (is it CASCO or something like OSAGO)?
Thank you.

Insurance is included in the price, and what kind of insurance does it drink in the contract, which is desirable to read. Insurances are different: with a deductible or full insurance, this is discussed and signed on the spot.

Usually insurance is included in the price. you look at Hertz and other big rental companies. you can book online all at once

I still don’t understand by rights, I have Ukrainian rights. Do they roll to Dubai or not? Some write that yes, others - that only local rights ...
аватар shumera
in Dubai and Sharjah you can rent a car.
аватар Anetka-gan
so Ukrainian international sample? plastic international. I have plastic ones.
Ordinary ones can work, maybe not. I think it's worth deciding on the spot. I generally rented a bike in India for a scanned copy of the rights.
аватар shumera
India and the UAE should not be compared.
аватар mannes
Ukrainian rights, plastic, received in 2008.
аватар Anetka-gan
it is necessary if the rental company is international and the police everywhere slow down the same way
mannes means you have international
аватар shumera
No need to compare in the sense (that you rented a bike from a photocopy)
аватар Anetka-gan
bike is a means of transportation. No?
exception and the human factor in the UAE is the same as everywhere else.
Threat I had a color scanned laminated copy. they didn't see the fake

There is Law No. 78 of 1986, which determines that you can only drive a vehicle in the UAE with a local license.
So, in the event of an accident, insurance does not work, and you still have to pay a fine for not driving ...
аватар Anetka-gan
contact your local agency for details. although they can give you a summary of the rules and that's all, but in fact do whatever you want.

The car will not be rented in Abu Dhabi, you can rent a car in Dubai. - so either on the spot you will learn the intricacies of the current situation (still changing)
аватар tourexpert
mannes Along the way, you are advised by people who have never rented a car in the UAE ..... but at the same time they strongly advise.
So. As you rightly said, law number 78 states that only rights issued in the UAE. However, there is an amendment in the laws of the emirate of Dubai. Where it is indicated that if you arrive in the country for less than 30 days, then you can use international law. Therefore, as shumera correctly said, you will not be able to rent a car in other Emirates. But where there is demand, there is supply. "Local offices" will give you a car both in Abu Dhabi and Dubai and according to the rights that you have. There are no police on the roads (like ours). Therefore, no one will stop you and check your documents. But if God forbid an accident ... then kapets. At least 2 months in prison + an eternal ban on entering the country. The rights are international, which bear the sign "IDG" And in addition to plastic, a book is issued for them (in my opinion in 15 languages). Since you are from Ukraine, you should contact here http://idg-ua.com/index.php 388 UAH for 3 years, I think not the price to take risks.
And book a car through the websites of airlines. They have big discounts. For example, go to flydubay. You can book there for $18 a day

Comparing the UAE with India is what surprised me.

And tell me, good people: in the Emirates and in Dubai, in particular, is right-hand traffic?
аватар HelenaK
yes, yes, the travel agency told me: you don’t need this headache! take the subway + taxi. Each speeding (even by 1 km) is recorded by cameras, and as a result - huge fines.
аватар HelenaK
if only we had such accidents if the driver’s health failed (a stroke-heart attack while driving) and that’s all!
аватар Liverpool
HelenaK:
thanks for the advice! To be honest, having learned that in the Emirates, the traffic is right-handed, the desire to steer there is gone :)
аватар tourexpert
Liverpool, what confuses you in right-hand traffic? In Ukraine and Russia, it is also right-handed)))) It looks like you got confused with the location of the steering wheel. Once again, to make it clear, in the UAE RIGHT-HAND traffic, i.e. steering wheel in the car on the LEFT side. Absolutely THE SAME as in Russia and Ukraine
HelenaK I literally took a car at the end of December and drove through almost all the emirates. Cameras, I agree with them almost every kilometer. But I don't think they work. The locals walked around me near the cameras "like standing up". And then I also pressed the pedal from time to time. When handing over the car, they checked the police website - there were no fines. And a month later, when the amount on the card "unfrozen", only 5 dirhams were withdrawn for "Salik", which arrived late. So do not be afraid to rent.

tourexpert :
Yes, that's right, I got it wrong! I was afraid of the English version...
аватар HelenaK
I haven't checked (and don't want to). this is what the agency said. yes, it's up to everyone. but you must admit, getting used to driving in Ukraine (often breaking the rules), it will be difficult to drive very correctly where the cameras fix you .... well, the locals were probably violated by those who have millions in their accounts (there is also a country of sheikhs). :):) I assume this, but I do not assure.
