Check mileage, geographical restrictions, roadside-support coverage, return location and any special insurance conditions. Cross-emirate kilometres count toward the agreed allowance.

Different emirate systems
Parking, tolling and traffic enforcement systems can differ. The renter remains responsible for understanding and paying applicable charges.
Practical example
A Dubai customer planning a weekend in Abu Dhabi should confirm permission and mileage before departure rather than discovering an excess charge later.
