In Asia, there are numerous car rental pick-up points at airports and city centers. In popular destinations such as Tokyo (NRT/HND), Osaka (KIX), Seoul (ICN/GMP), Hong Kong (HKG), Bangkok (BKK/DMK), Singapore (SIN), and Kuala Lumpur (KUL), you will find terminal counters and urban offices. Additionally, there are pick-ups at major train stations and shopping centers, and sometimes large hotels offer delivery and collection points.
Auto Europe Israel collaborates with a wide network of car rental companies across Asia, offering you various pick-up and drop-off points in major cities, tourist areas, and key transportation routes. You can choose to pick up the car at international airports, near major railway and high-speed train stations, at counters in city centers and business districts, and even at stations located in malls, conference centers, and ferry ports on popular islands. The multitude of stations in different countries—from East Asia through Southeast Asia to the Indian subcontinent—allows you to tailor the pick-up and drop-off points to the itinerary, urban pace, or beach holiday, and choose between centrally located spots with high accessibility or quiet, convenient locations outside the city core. This way, you enjoy maximum flexibility in planning, whether you are visiting for a short city trip or planning a long intercity journey.
Operating hours vary between rental companies and from station to station, and are sometimes influenced by local weekends and regional holidays. Therefore, it's important to check in advance that the hours at your chosen station match your landing time, train departure, or arrival in the city center, so you can receive the car at the most convenient place and time for you. At major airports, there are sometimes active stations until late hours or the possibility of returns outside business hours, but this must be confirmed at the time of booking and conditions and fees should be checked. It's also recommended to update flight details if necessary, to help the provider track delays. With proper planning and conscious selection of location and hours, you can enjoy an efficient and convenient car rental for any destination in Asia.
To ensure a smooth pick-up and drop-off experience in the diverse Asian region, it's recommended to complete the reservation details in full, check the exact address and arrival instructions to the station, keep updated contact numbers, and arrive a few minutes before your planned pick-up time. If you plan to return the car in a different city, make sure in advance about the availability of one-way rentals and associated costs. Choosing a station with access to public transportation will assist in case of schedule changes, allowing you to continue your journey easily and confidently.
Planning to rent a car abroad? We've compiled four practical tips to help you choose wisely, understand the fine print, and avoid surprising charges—to save time and money and drive with peace of mind, before booking, during pick-up, and at return.
Ensure insurance and deductible conditions
Read what is covered in CDW/TP, whether there is a deductible waiver, and what is not included (tires/glass/roof/undercarriage). Document damages with photos at pick-up and return and keep a signed copy of the conditions.
A suitable credit card for deposit
Ensure a physical credit card in the name of the main driver, with sufficient limit for deposit charge/hold. Debit or prepaid cards are usually not accepted; prepare a PIN—without the card, the car will not be handed over.
Border crossing, tolls, and vignettes
Check in advance if crossing countries or boarding a ferry is allowed and if written approval and payment are required. Ensure an active vignette/road tag and be aware of tolls to avoid fines.
Mileage, additional driver, and one-way rental
Check if the rental includes unlimited mileage or daily limit and additional charge per mile. Add an additional driver in advance in the contract. Ensure one-way costs and return at the approved point only.
