It depends on the car hire company. Some companies let you drive a hire car abroad, often for an extra fee, while others don't allow it at all.

If you plan to cross a border, check with the company before you travel. Driving abroad without permission could invalidate your insurance or break the terms of your rental agreement.

Where you collect your car depends on the car hire company. Some companies have a desk in the airport terminal. Others use a meet and greet service or run a free shuttle bus to the pick-up location.

Here's how some of the most popular car hire companies at Hyderabad Airport arrange pick-up:

• Europcar: Airport terminal desk

Your booking confirmation will tell you exactly where to go. If you're taking a shuttle bus, allow a little extra time before you set off.

You don't have to get excess insurance, but it's worth considering. Your hire car comes with basic insurance, but you'll still need to pay an excess if it's damaged or stolen.

You can also buy excess insurance separately, which is often cheaper than buying it through the car hire company.
