Malta is certainly one of the trickiest places to hire a car without a credit card as most suppliers there will require deposits upwards of 1500.00 EUR held on a credit card. Despite this however we have managed to arrange a few options for those wishing to forgo using credit cards.
Where can I hire in Malta with a debit card?
Currently we only have one location where we can offer this service, though it is by far the most popular one, Malta International Airport, making it easier and more convenient for holidaymakers flying in and out of Malta looking to hire.
What would I need to have with me?
The most important thing you would be required to bring with you is a standard debit card, Visa or Mastercard, but it must have embossed / raised numbers and no mention of Electron / Maestro or electronic use only. The card must also be linked directly to your bank account as prepaid cards wouldn’t be accepted. The only other things would be your standard ID, basically your licence, passport / EU ID card and return flight details.
Would they hold a large deposit on my debit card?
Not at all no! We can arrange deposits in Malta as low as 200.00 EUR on your debit card, so you don’t have to worry about your spending money being locked up in deposits. If you need any further information please don’t hesitate to contact us.
