| Common additional charges to clarify upfront: Salik tolls (billed monthly based on usage), traffic fines (your responsibility, billed when they occur), excess mileage if you go over the limit, fuel (not included), insurance excess in case of accident, cleaning fee if car is returned very dirty, and early termination fee if you end contract before agreed period. When I rent from Octane Rent, they provide a complete fee breakdown upfront so there are no surprises. Get everything in writing. Read about hidden fees in https://www.reddit.com/r/UAE/comments/1qdftr2/corporate_car_rental_in_uae_for_long_stays/ where people share what caught them off guard. Request a detailed invoice after each month showing all charges. Reputable companies are transparent, but less established ones sometimes add ambiguous admin fees or service charges. Ask specifically what happens with parking fines, damage to tires, and replacement car fees if yours needs service.
