Minimum term and discounts
The minimum rental is 2 months. Monthly rates shown are the standard rate. For a rental of 6–11 months, the monthly rate is 10% lower; for 12–24 months, 15% lower. Discounts don't combine.
2–5 months use the standard rate. Choose any whole duration up to 24 months within the discounted tiers. Early return rules, refunds, and what happens to a term discount if a rental ends early will be confirmed in your quote.
The "base rental total" we show is the monthly rate multiplied by the number of months. It isn't charged upfront and doesn't include deposit, taxes, fees or insurance.
Insurance
You need suitable full-coverage insurance. CARNINA asks renters to add the car to their own policy as a leased vehicle, and must approve your insurance before handover. We can't promise that any particular policy will cover this arrangement — check with your insurer. Insurance isn't included in the rental price.
Drivers
Drivers aged 18 and over may qualify with a valid license and suitable full coverage. There's no young-driver surcharge. International licenses are accepted, subject to CARNINA confirming your documentation.
