We also clearly highlight car and van hire options in Djibouti that have free cancellation

If you've booked car hire with free cancellation, you can usually cancel or change your booking without paying a fee. The deadline depends on the car hire company, but it's typically around 48 hours before pick-up. If you cancel after that, you may be charged. If your booking doesn't include free cancellation, you'll need to check the car hire company's cancellation policy. Depending on when you cancel, you might have to pay a fee or you won't get a refund.
Yes. Most car hire companies in Djibouti offer same-day car hire. If you're looking for last-minute car hire in Djibouti, search for today's date on Skyscanner to compare what's available.
The best time to book car hire in Djibouti is usually as early as you can. Booking ahead often means cheaper prices and more cars to choose from. You can sometimes find a good last-minute deal, but it's never guaranteed and availability is often more limited.
It depends on the car hire company. Some companies in Djibouti will let you drive your hire car abroad, often for an extra fee, while others don't allow it. If you're planning to cross a border, check with the car hire company before you travel. Driving your hire car abroad without permission could invalidate your insurance or break the terms of your rental agreement.
It depends on the car hire company. Some accept debit cards, others require a credit card. Either way, you'll need enough money on your card to cover a security deposit which you'll get back when you return the car.
Electric cars aren't currently available to hire in Djibouti. More electric cars are becoming available, so that could change in the future. If you're still looking for a lower-emission option, you can compare hybrid cars on Skyscanner.

Yes – you can easily find car hire companies that allow you to pick up your car in one place, and then drop it off in another. Just select ‘Return car to a different location’ when you search with us.

Public transport can only get you so far, and could be tricky to navigate with children or luggage. With your own set of wheels, you can go wherever you want, whenever you want, for as long as you want. And you'll be able to discover more outside of Djibouti.

Of course. Most major car hire companies like Hertz, Europcar and Goldcar offer baby and child seats as an add-on when you book.

You don't have to get it, but it's worth thinking about. In Djibouti, the excess (what you pay if the car gets damaged or stolen) ranges from $575 to $3,423 depending on who you book with. The cost of excess insurance also varies by car hire company. You can buy excess insurance separately, which is usually cheaper than buying it through the car hire company.
Yes. Most car hire companies in Djibouti let you add an extra driver. You usually need to pay an additional driver fee which costs around $97 per day. Some companies include it at no extra cost, so check the details before you book.
We search the internet for all kinds of vehicle hire deals, including vans. But at the moment, we can't find any van hire in Djibouti.

On average, hiring a car in Djibouti will set you back around $221 per day or $1,542 per week. 

Most places – Djibouti included – allow under 25s to rent a car as long as they provide a valid driver's license and the correct documentation. It may cost slightly more due to a higher insurance excess for young drivers.
