Car rental in Bali with no deposit

Rent a car in Bali with no deposit held, with pickup at Ngurah Rai Airport or delivery to your hotel. Cover and payment terms show on each car.

No-deposit car hire deals

Where can you start your journey?

No-deposit delivery also reaches Nusa Dua and Sanur. Choose the real town so any delivery cost shows in your quote.

Which charges remain payable?

Reservation payment

Booking takes 15 to 20% before pickup. It goes towards the hire; no deposit does not remove this first payment.

Collection balance

Pay what is left of the hire to your Bali company when you collect. Methods vary by car, so check before you go.

Handover costs

Delivery to an address can add a charge, and some airport handovers cost more out of hours. Enter both times and places to see it.

Price and currency

Prices are set in US dollars, so euro figures move with exchange rates. Cover you add on top raises the total.

How does zero security work?

Nothing held

On a zero-deposit hire the company holds no money against the car. That is separate from what you pay to rent it.

Damage responsibility

No deposit can still leave you paying for damage. Your cover sets the excess, your share of any covered damage.

Bali car rental insurance explained

Think about cover apart from the deposit. Each car has its own set of levels.

Minimum coverageIncluded as standard
  • Damage to other vehicles (TPL) (included)
  • Damage to your hire car (not included)
Basic coverage
  • Limited collision cover (CDW) (included)
  • Damage to other vehicles (TPL) (included)
  • Glass and tyre damage (not included)
Full Coverage
  • Limited driver liability (Super CDW) (included)
  • Damage to other vehicles (TPL) (included)
Full Coverage Plus
  • Full damage cover (included)
  • No driver liability for accident damage (included)
  • Basic CDW puts a limit on collision costs. Standard cover skips the interior, underbody, windscreen and wheels, so check any upgrade for these parts.
  • With Full Coverage, Super CDW may lower your Basic share or leave it as it is. On some cars your share falls while the deposit stays.
  • Full Coverage Plus is priced car by car where offered. Under its terms, accident damage is covered in full with no share for you.
  • Vandalism or neglect voids the cover. Deposit and excess stay separate even when the figures match; an upgrade does not always remove the deposit.
Reporting an accident

Report any insured incident to your Bali company at once. Ask the police for papers too, unless the company says otherwise. Without both, the cover is void and you carry the loss.

Where is a deposit still necessary?

Uluwatu and Padangbai

Cars picked up in Uluwatu or Padangbai need a deposit. An airport no-deposit car cannot simply be delivered there.

Other secured offers

Elsewhere in Bali, cars with a deposit sit beside no-deposit ones. Even Low deposit means some money; check the figure.

Find a vehicle that fits

  1. Describe the journey

    Set your pickup town, return point and times. Add your age and years with a licence, since similar Bali cars can differ.

  2. Choose the filter

    Use No deposit to narrow the list and open a car. With cover and extras chosen, make sure the deposit still reads zero.

  3. Save the confirmation

    Read the conditions and book. The confirmation email names your company and gives contacts to plan the pickup.

Security amount versus card acceptance

Deposit-free choice

No deposit is about money held against the car. Some Bali ones take payment other than credit; the hire still needs an accepted method.

Alternative payments

Cash, debit and card rules vary by car. A car can skip credit yet hold a deposit; some take cards for it, not cash.

Practical questions before departure

How is a short deposit-free rental on Bali billed?

The smallest charge is one full day of twenty-four hours, even for a few hours. A morning pickup and next-afternoon return is two days. The same count applies to Bali Airport pickups in Denpasar.

Can I keep my Bali hire vehicle beyond the agreed return?

Ask the company for more time before the booked period ends. Having no deposit does not allow an unagreed extension. The same rule applies with or without a deposit.

Could I face a washing charge after a deposit-free Bali hire?

Yes, if the car comes back too dirty to inspect. Parking, petrol, tolls and traffic fines are also yours to pay.

Can a pet accompany me in a Bali rental vehicle?

Small animals only, in a carrier for the whole drive. Zero deposit does not change that.

Must my contact number work before I collect in Bali?

Yes. Give a number with its country code and keep it on during the hire and the day before. If neither phone nor messages reach you, service complaints are not accepted.
