FAQ

Planning a rental in Montenegro? Below are the most common questions from our international and local customers. If you don't find your answer here, reach out any time via WhatsApp, Viber, or phone at +382 69 727 288 — our team replies fast and speaks perfect English.

X-GO offers a carefully selected boutique fleet of vehicles, ranging from economical compacts like the Hyundai i20 and Renault Clio (from €17.30/day), to mid-size cars like the Hyundai i30, Renault Megane, and Skoda Fabia, up to automatic options like the Peugeot 308, and spacious wagons like the Skoda Octavia Caravan and VW Passat Caravan for families or longer trips.

Every vehicle is personally inspected between rentals and maintained to high standards of safety and cleanliness.

No. Unlike most rental companies in Montenegro — who typically hold €200 to €1,000 on your credit card as a security deposit — X-GO does not require any deposit. This is one of our most-valued differentiators and one of the main reasons customers choose us. You only pay for the rental itself.

For most visitors, no. Montenegro follows the 1968 Vienna Convention on Road Traffic, which means a valid driver's license in Latin or Cyrillic script is accepted directly. This covers EU/EEA, UK, US, Canada, Australia, Serbia, North Macedonia, and most other countries.

An IDP is only required if your license is in a non-Latin, non-Cyrillic script — for example, licenses issued in China, Japan, Thailand, or Arabic-script countries. In those cases, please bring the IDP alongside your original license.

Booking with X-GO is simple. You can reserve:

  • Online at rentacarxgo.com — with an automatic 10% discount when paying online
  • By phone, WhatsApp, or Viber at +382 69 727 288

At pickup, please bring:

  • A valid driver's license (IDP only if your license is in non-Latin, non-Cyrillic script)
  • Your passport or national ID
  • A credit or debit card for payment

No deposit is required — you only pay for the rental itself.

  • Minimum age: 21
  • Maximum age: 69
  • Drivers aged 21–24 may be subject to a young driver surcharge depending on the vehicle category
  • All drivers should hold a valid license

Yes. Because we do not require a deposit, a debit card works perfectly for booking and payment — no credit card is required.

We accept Visa and Mastercard online, processed through the Allsecure Payment Gateway in partnership with Hipotekarna Bank AD, and secured by Mastercard ID Check and Visa Secure (3D Secure).

Paying online automatically applies a 10% discount to your booking. In-person payment is also available. All prices are in Euro (EUR) and already include VAT — no hidden fees or credit card processing charges.

Yes — and it's free. We deliver and collect vehicles at both:

  • Podgorica Airport (TGD)
  • Tivat Airport (TIV)

Simply share your flight details at booking and our team will meet you on arrival. Delivery to other locations in Montenegro — hotels, villas, ferry ports — can also be arranged on request.

Every X-GO rental includes as standard:

  • Unlimited mileage anywhere in Montenegro
  • Basic Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) insurance with deductible
  • VAT (all prices already include it)
  • 24/7 roadside assistance
  • Free delivery and pickup at Podgorica Airport (TGD) and Tivat Airport (TIV)

No hidden fees. No credit card processing fees. No deposit.

Optional extras that may carry a small additional cost include extended insurance, cross-border authorization, additional driver registration, or custom delivery to a location outside our standard service cities.

Our vehicles are rented on a "same-to-same" fuel policy — you receive the car with a certain fuel level and return it with the same level. This is simpler and fairer than "full-to-full" policies.

Montenegro has just one toll road — the A1 highway between Smokovac (near Podgorica) and Mateševo. The toll is paid directly at the booth in cash (EUR) or by card. Otherwise, driving in Montenegro is toll-free, and no vignette is required, unlike in Slovenia or Austria.

Tolls are not included in the rental price — they are paid directly by the driver at the booth.

Yes, cross-border travel is permitted with prior written authorization from X-GO. We commonly approve travel to:

  • Croatia
  • Bosnia and Herzegovina
  • Albania
  • Serbia
  • Kosovo

Additional insurance coverage and a Green Card extension may be required depending on the destination. Please let us know at booking if you plan to cross any border so we can prepare the paperwork in advance.

Yes, rental extensions are possible subject to vehicle availability. To extend, please contact us at least 24 hours before your scheduled return by phone, WhatsApp, or email. We'll update your agreement and confirm continuous insurance coverage.

Weekly and monthly rates may apply if your extended rental crosses those thresholds — often meaning a lower daily rate than the original booking.

A reservation can be cancelled via email, WhatsApp, or phone at +382 69 727 288.

Standard cancellation policy:

  • 48+ hours before pick-up: Full refund
  • 12–48 hours before pick-up: Partial refund — extras only; vehicle rental fee is non-refundable
  • Less than 12 hours before pick-up: No refund

Peak season (June–August) and long-term rentals:

  • 7+ days before pick-up: Full refund
  • 5–7 days before pick-up: Partial refund — extras only; vehicle rental fee is non-refundable
  • Less than 5 days before pick-up: No refund

Refunds are processed to the original payment card. The cancellation time is the moment we receive your email, message, or call.
