With many hosts, nothing is blocked on your card — you pay only the rental cost. This is a rare option in Georgia and one of TripBox's main advantages over international rental chains where the deposit is typically $500-1500. ### Can I rent without a credit card? Yes. This is critical for travelers from Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan and other CIS countries who often don't have international credit cards after 2022. TripBox has a "No credit card" filter — these hosts accept debit cards (Visa Debit, Mastercard Debit, Maestro), Apple Pay, Google Pay, or cash on pickup. ### Can I pay for the rental in rubles? Yes. TripBox is one of the few platforms in Georgia with direct payment in RUB. At booking you choose: GEL, USD, EUR or RUB. No hidden conversion fees. Payment goes through Russian banking channels. ### Do I need an International Driving Permit (IDP)? No, if your national license is in Latin or Cyrillic script. This covers all licenses from Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Baltic states, Georgia, all European countries, USA, Canada, Australia, most Latin American countries. IDP is required if your license is in other scripts: Arabic (Gulf states, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, Algeria, Tunisia), Hebrew (Israel), Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai, Hindi. ### Can I rent in one city and return in another? Yes, TripBox supports one-way rental between all cities and airports in the catalog. The most popular routes: - Kutaisi Airport (KUT) → Tbilisi (for those who arrived via Wizz Air but flying home from TBS) - Tbilisi Airport (TBS) → Batumi (two-week sea and mountains holiday) - Batumi → Kutaisi Airport (KUT) (for budget departure) - Mestia → Kutaisi (after trekking in Svaneti) One-way cost — from $0 (if host operates in both cities) to $100-150 (if host needs to bring the car back). ### Can I cross the border into Armenia or Turkey with the rental? Yes, many hosts allow border crossing. To Armenia — via Sadakhlo border crossing, to Turkey — via Sarpi border crossing. For border crossing: - Pre-approval from host required - Cross-Border Fee surcharge — $30-100 - Additional insurance for the destination country - Original power of attorney for departure (prepared by host) Russia, Azerbaijan, Iran — border crossing usually not allowed. ### Can I drive to Svaneti (Mestia)? Yes. The road from Kutaisi to Mestia is 220 km, about 4.5 hours. From Tbilisi it's 470 km, 8-9 hours with stops. The road is paved to Mestia, but in winter (December-March) sections may be closed due to avalanche danger. Crossover minimum recommended, for winter — all-wheel drive 4×4. To Ushguli — a separate 45 km mountain gravel section, only on 4×4 with high ground clearance. ### How long is the drive from Tbilisi Airport to the city center? 17 km on route S6, about 25 minutes in normal traffic, 35-45 minutes in rush hour. Paved road, simple for a foreign driver. ### How long is the drive from Batumi Airport (BUS) to the city center? 6 km, about 15 minutes. This is the closest airport to its city in Georgia. ### How long is the drive from Kutaisi Airport (KUT) to Tbilisi / Batumi? - To Kutaisi center: 22 km, about 25 minutes - To Tbilisi: 245 km, 3 hours 30 minutes on route E60 - To Batumi: 140 km, 2 hours 15 minutes on route E70 ### What happens if my flight is delayed? When booking, enter your flight number. The TripBox host automatically tracks status. If your flight is delayed or canceled — the airport meeting is rescheduled without penalties or surcharges. The airport works 24/7, most hosts accept flights around the clock including night arrivals (relevant for Wizz Air and Ryanair which often land in Kutaisi between 00:30 and 04:00). ### What insurance is included and what's the deductible? Base TPL insurance (third-party liability) is included free with all cars. Most also have CDW (partial coverage of the rental car). Deductible in base insurance — from $100 for economy class, $200-500 for sedans and crossovers, up to $1500-2000 for premium and 4×4 vehicles. You can pay extra for Super CDW or Full Coverage — this reduces or completely eliminates the deductible. Cost of extended insurance $5-20/day depending on class. ### What to do in case of an accident? 1. Photograph the scene from all angles 2. Don't move vehicles until police arrive 3. Call police at 112 4. Contact the host and TripBox support (24/7) 5. Get the official police report 6. Hand all documents to the host All insured cases are covered by the insurance company. Don't try to settle on the spot without police — this can be fraud. ### What about winter tires and chains? From December 1 to March 1 Georgia officially requires winter tires for driving on mountain roads (Gudauri, Kazbegi, Bakuriani, Svaneti). TripBox hosts usually include winter tires free of charge from November to March. Snow chains are an additional option $5-15/day, recommended for trips to Gudauri and Kazbegi during heavy snow. ### Should I rent a car or use taxi / minibus? Depends on the trip: - **1-2 days in Tbilisi:** Bolt or taxi is enough - **Trip of 3+ days across the country:** rental is 2-3 times cheaper and 10 times more flexible. Marshrutkas (minibuses) in Georgia are slow, inconvenient schedule, stops only in major cities - **Svaneti, Tusheti, wine tours in Kakheti:** only rental or car with driver — public transport doesn't reach there - **You need an airport transfer without subsequent rental:** TripBox chauffeur from $30-80 ### Can I rent a car with a roof top tent? Yes. TripBox has 4×4s with mounted Roof Top Tents. This is a popular choice for road trips through Svaneti, Tusheti, Khevsureti and wine country Kakheti.

Price for 4×4 with RTT — from $90/day in low season. ### Can I rent a camper van (motor home) in Georgia?
