Weekly and monthly BMW hire in Bangkok
A week starts at ฿21,000 and a month at ฿73,500. Those figures follow one rule only: weekly is the daily rate multiplied by 6, monthly by 21. The BMW X3 at ฿3,500 a day therefore comes to ฿21,000 for a week and ฿73,500 for a month; the Z4 M40i at ฿15,000 runs to ฿90,000 and ฿315,000 on the same multipliers. Longer bookings lower the daily figure, so compare the per-day cost of a week against a single day before choosing the term. If your plans sit between the two — ten days, say — ask the manager to price it when you book rather than assuming either rate applies.
What the price includes
- VAT 7%: already inside every figure shown above, so the daily rate is what you pay for the car.
- Hire from 1 day: there is no minimum week and no minimum month — a single day is a normal booking.
- Delivery: we bring the car to any address in the city and to Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) and Don Mueang Airport (DMK); the address, date and time are agreed with a manager, and a delivery fee, if any, is agreed when booking.
- Clean car, full tank: the car is handed over clean with a full tank.
- Security hold: a bank card in the main driver's name is used for it, and the amount is set out in the rental agreement.
Anything beyond the shown price — delivery fee, deposit, excess — is set out in the rental agreement, so read it before you confirm.

Premium, Electric and Sports classes explained
Premium holds six cars from ฿3,500 and covers the widest spread of body shapes: two SUVs, three sedans and a coupe, all automatic and seating five except the 430i, which takes four. Electric is three cars only — the iX3 SUV at 286 hp, the iX SUV at 326 hp and the i7 sedan at 544 hp. Sports is a single car, the Z4 M40i convertible, 3.0 L, 340 hp, two seats.
Petrol, diesel, hybrid or electric
- Petrol: five cars run on it, from 1.5 L in the X1 to 3.0 L in the Z4 M40i.
- Diesel: the 3 Series, 2.0 L, 190 hp.
- Hybrid: the 7 Series pairs a 2.0 L engine with electric assistance for 394 hp and rear-wheel drive.
- Electric: three cars charge from a socket and skip fuel stops altogether, all automatic.
- Transmission: every one of the 10 cars is automatic, so there is no manual to choose between.
Which BMW suits your trip
The 430i coupe seats four and the Z4 M40i seats two, so both work for a couple on a short break rather than a family run down to Hua Hin. Seat count and luggage space matter more than horsepower once you add passengers and bags to a longer route.
| Model | Class | Seats | Fuel | ฿ per day |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BMW X3 | Premium | 5 | Petrol | ฿3,500 |
| BMW X1 | Premium | 5 | Petrol | ฿3,800 |
| BMW 430i | Premium | 4 | Petrol | ฿4,100 |
| BMW iX3 | Electric | 5 | Electric | ฿4,700 |
| BMW i7 | Electric | 5 | Electric | ฿7,900 |
| BMW iX | Electric | 5 | Electric | ฿7,900 |
| BMW Z4 M40i | Sports | 2 | Petrol | ฿15,000 |
Documents and driver requirements for BMW car rental in Bangkok
To collect a BMW through Rent-Trip, the main driver brings four documents: a passport, a home driving licence, an International Driving Permit unless they hold an ASEAN licence, and a bank card in their own name. The details are agreed when booking.
Licence, IDP and passport
A foreign visitor needs a home driving licence plus an International Driving Permit issued under the 1949 Geneva Convention. Section 42 bis of the Motor Vehicle Act makes the permit the document that turns a national licence into a valid one on Thai roads, and citizens of ASEAN countries may drive on their national licence without it. The police fine for driving without the permit is ฿500–1,000, and an insurer may refuse a claim after an incident.
Minimum age and the security hold
- Minimum driver age: 21, and conditions for drivers under 25 and for premium classes are set out in the rental agreement.
- Security hold: a bank card in the main driver's name is used for the hold, and the amount is set out in the agreement.
- Documents to bring: passport, home driving licence, International Driving Permit unless you hold an ASEAN licence, and the bank card.
- Contract: since 30 December 2025 a car rental agreement is a contract controlled by the OCPB, written in Thai, with all fees and penalties disclosed in it.
- Fines: traffic-camera fines are issued to the car owner and re-invoiced to the renter.
How the BMW rental booking works
You start by picking the model and the dates, and a manager confirms both before the booking is fixed. There is no online self-service checkout — every BMW car rental request goes through a person who checks the car is free on your dates.
What you send us
- Model and class: name the car you want, or tell us the trip and we suggest one from the 10 BMW models.
- Dates and times: the day you collect and the day you return, with the hours — a one-day hire is the shortest term we take.
- Delivery address: any address in Bangkok, Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) or Don Mueang Airport (DMK).
- Driver details: the main driver's age and the licence they hold, so we can confirm the conditions before anything is fixed.
What the manager confirms
A manager comes back with the car, the price for your term, and the delivery time. Anything that is not a fixed rate on this page — a delivery fee, the security hold, the excess — is set out in the rental agreement, so ask about it at this stage rather than on the day.
The car is brought to the address or the airport you named, and the terms of the hand-over are agreed when booking.
Weekly and monthly bookings
Longer terms are priced from the daily rate: weekly starts at ฿21,000 and monthly at ฿73,500, both taking the daily figure as the base. Tell the manager the full length when you book, because the term changes which rate applies and which car is worth holding for you.
For an electric BMW, say so early. The iX3, i7 and iX are three of the 10 cars on this page, and a longer hire on one of them is worth arranging ahead rather than on the day of travel.
Renting a BMW in Bangkok traffic tolls and parking tips
Traffic keeps to the left and every car we hand over is right-hand drive, so the first few kilometres may feel unfamiliar. Toll roads, parking rules and the city's driving rhythm are the three things worth knowing before you leave the delivery point.
Which side of the road and what the limits are
Drive on the left, sit on the right, and treat the speed limit as the local one rather than the one you know at home. In built-up areas the limit is 80 km/h, outside them 90 km/h, on the motorways (M7, M9) 120 km/h, on the expressways 110 km/h and on elevated sections 100 km/h. A sign can lower any of those figures, and speed cameras on Motorway 7 enforce the 120 km/h limit primarily by photograph.
- Expressways: the EXAT urban network, including Chaloem Maha Nakhon and Si Rat, takes cash or an Easy Pass tag; M-PASS is accepted too, and the tags are interchangeable, but one car carries one tag.
- Motorway 7: the Bangkok–Chonburi–Pattaya route, 149.3 km, with nine payment points; from the Lat Krabang entrance a four-wheel car pays ฿25 to Bang Bo, ฿100 to Pong and ฿105 to Pattaya.
- Motorway 9: the outer Kanchanaphisek ring, where M-Flow reads your plate by camera and bills you afterwards; without registration you pay within two days by plate number, and from the third day the tariff doubles.
- Don Muang Tollway: 28.1 km above Vibhavadi Rangsit Road from Din Daeng to Don Mueang.
Parking and the practical side
Shopping malls are the easy answer for parking, and the first hours are often free: CentralWorld gives two hours free, then ฿20 per hour, and ฿50 per hour after six; ICONSIAM gives two hours free, charges ฿30 for the third hour and ฿60 per hour after seven; Terminal 21 Asok gives three hours free. Central Bangna gives six hours free, and Esplanade Ratchada, PARA Pinklao and Central Festival Eastville are free outright.
Out-of-town trips with BMW car rental in Bangkok
Out-of-town trips are where a BMW earns its keep: Motorway 7 runs 149.3 km from the capital to Chonburi and Map Ta Phut, and the Pattaya exit sits at 125.865 km.
Toll costs on the way out
- Motorway 7 (Bangkok – Chonburi – Pattaya – Map Ta Phut): 149.3 km, 9 payment points; a car with 4 wheels pays ฿25 from the Lat Krabang entrance to Bang Bo, ฿100 to Pong and ฿105 to Pattaya.
- Bangkok – Pattaya in total: roughly ฿105–130 for a passenger car, paid in cash or with an M-PASS or Easy Pass tag.
- Don Muang Tollway: 28.1 km above Vibhavadi Rangsit Road from Din Daeng to Don Mueang; a passenger car pays an estimated ฿60–115.
- Motorway 9 (outer Kanchanaphisek ring): M-Flow is barrier-free — a camera reads the plate and the bill follows; the guide estimate for a passenger car is ฿30–70.
Fuel before you leave
Diesel B7 at Bangchak retail sits at ฿41.44 a litre, gasohol 95 at ฿39.94 and premium 98 at ฿49.29. The i7 and iX never visit a pump but need a charging plan for a longer day.
M-Flow and the tag question
Ask at hand-over how M-Flow charges are settled on a rental.
Insurance, deposit and the rental agreement
The rental agreement is the document that fixes what you pay beyond the daily rate, and here it has a specific legal shape. Since 30 December 2025 a car rental contract is controlled by the OCPB: it is written in Thai, and all fees and penalties are disclosed in it.
What the agreement covers
- Compulsory insurance (Por Ror Bor): attached to every registered car and covers injury to third parties — it is not optional and not something you add at the desk.
- Class 1 insurance: covers damage to the car itself; its terms and the excess are set out in the agreement.
- Minimum age: the minimum driver age is 21; conditions for drivers under 25 and for premium classes are set out in the agreement.
- VAT 7%: already included in the prices shown, so the daily rate you see is the daily rate you pay.
- Rental term: available from 1 day, and weekly and monthly rates are lower per day than the daily rate.
Fines, delivery and the details agreed when booking
A delivery fee, if any, is agreed when booking, and the address, date and time are confirmed with a manager before the booking is fixed. Delivery elsewhere is arranged case by case and is not promised on the site.
Two things are worth checking before you sign. First, whether the excess on Class 1 sits at a level you are comfortable carrying — the figure is in the agreement. Second, keep the home licence and the International Driving Permit with you: an insurer may refuse a claim if the permit is missing, and the police fine for driving without one is ฿500–1,000. Documents to bring are a passport, your home driving licence, the International Driving Permit unless you hold an ASEAN licence, and a bank card in the main driver's name.
Everything not stated here — the deposit amount, the excess figure, delivery fees and any discount — is set out in the rental agreement or agreed when booking.
