Cancellation & Refund

Rules for modifying or cancelling a reservation, no-shows, and early returns.

Updated on 17 September 2026

1Reservation Modification / Cancellation

A. Reservations may be modified up to 8 hours prior to the scheduled vehicle pick-up time.

B. If the reservation is modified and the total amount changes, the following shall apply:

• If the modification results in an amount due to the customer, the remaining balance will be refunded upon closing the rental agreement.

• If the modification results in an additional amount payable by the customer, the customer will be given the option to pay the additional amount through electronic payment. If the additional amount is not paid, the customer will lose the discount applicable to electronic payment.

C. If the reservation is cancelled more than 24 hours before the scheduled vehicle pick-up time, the reservation amount will be refunded after deducting the electronic payment service fee.

D. If the reservation is cancelled within 24 hours prior to the scheduled vehicle pick-up time, an administrative fee equivalent to 100% of the vehicle rental value for one day will be deducted, and the remaining amount will be refunded.

E. For payments made by credit card, the refund will be credited to the customer's account within a minimum period of two weeks from the date of cancellation.

F. For payments made through the SADAD payment service, the refundable amount will be paid in cash through the nearest branch.

G. For payments made through Tamara, in the event of reservation cancellation, a 4% administrative fee and applicable service fees will be charged, in addition to applying clauses (C) or (D) above.

2No-Show / Loss of Rental

If the reservation is not cancelled before the scheduled pick-up time and the vehicle is not collected on the specified date and time, or if the customer does not meet the applicable rental requirements, a fee equivalent to 100% of the vehicle rental value for one day will be deducted as a no-show/lost rental fee.

This fee is intended to compensate for our inability to rent the vehicle to another customer while it was reserved for the customer's use.

In the event of a no-show or failure to meet the applicable rental requirements, the prepaid amount will be refunded through the nearest branch after deducting a no-show/lost rental fee equivalent to 100% of the vehicle rental value for one day.

For payments made through Tamara, if the customer fails to appear to collect the vehicle at the scheduled time, a 4% administrative fee and applicable service fees will be charged, in addition to applying clause (A) or (B) above.

3Early Return

The remaining unused amount will be refunded if the vehicle is returned before the scheduled return time.

For payments made through Tamara, if the reservation has been used and converted into a rental agreement, and the vehicle is subsequently returned before the scheduled return time, a 4% administrative fee and applicable service fees will be deducted from the rental amount corresponding to the unused rental period.
