Renting a car in Egypt: Documents

Local rental companies aren’t like bureaucratic hassles, because you only need a minimum of documents:

Driver’s license
Credit card
Reservation voucher
ID or passport.

The Traffic Rules

Familiarizing yourself with these key rules and local behaviors is essential for a safe journey across the ancient land. Key driving regulations you should follow while taking a car rental in Egypt:

Traffic moves on the right side of the road.
Wearing a seat belt is mandatory for all occupants of the vehicle, both in the front and back seats.
Speed limits are typically 60 km/h in cities, and 90-100 km/h on major desert highways (always check specific signage).
Expect frequent police or military checkpoints when traveling between cities, especially in Upper Country, and always comply politely.
The legal blood alcohol limit is 0.5 ppm, but it’s safest not to drink at all before driving.

Parking

In busy areas, especially in Cairo, designated attendants (sayes) will guide you to a spot and expect a small, agreed-upon fee upon your return.

Always use secured, walled, covered structures (garages) for long-term stays or overnight motor storage in major cities for maximum peace of mind.

Gas Stations

Fuel prices in this country are heavily subsidized by the government, making the cost to fill your tank remarkably low.

Expect to pay less than €0.50 per liter for standard petrol (octane 92), which is one of the lowest rates globally.

Toll Roads

Major desert arteries and newly built expressways connecting Cairo to other cities (like Alexandria or Suez) have barrier checkpoints where you must pay a usage fee.

The cost to pass through one of these checkpoints is generally very low, ranging from €0.50 to €2.00 per segment.
