Hiw much do they charge for monthly basis for a small car?

Gravitas

The rates vary but around RM1k-1.5k is a ball-park figure over a longer-term rental or lease agreement.

They do give for a month..and what documents they rrquire if we wanna rent a car?

Gravitas

You need a valid driving licence. If you were thinking of buying a vehicle with a loan, this can be very difficult to arrange and down payments for foreigners are always 30%.

thanks a lot for info...valid driving licence??i have valid indian 4wheeler driving licence...could that be enough??or need to take licence in malaysia too...

Gravitas

If you have an employment pass i.e. you are deemed resident in Malaysia, you need to get a Malaysian licence as the Indian one is only valid for 3 months. For this you need to get your Indian DL authenticated in India. See instructions on the website for the Indian High Commission in Malaysia. You can use your car DL to rent

Thanks for the info.
