Sorting car hire for a Russia trip

[Fiarynara]

Right, I'm planning a proper road trip across Russia later this year and getting a bit wound up by the booking side of things. What's the crack with sorting a vehicle without ending up in a proper muddle with docs and insurance?

Picking up a rental there isn't complicated once you know what's expected. Bring your passport, your driving licence, and an International Driving Permit is highly recommended if your licence isn't printed in Cyrillic. Most services and local owners accept debit cards nowadays, and you typically put down a small deposit beforehand then pay the rest in person when you collect the keys. Double-check the insurance excess so you don't get stung with unexpected charges later.

Snap a video of every panel and the interior on pickup, no matter how tidy it looks. It's the only way to dodge that old trick of being blamed for existing scrapes.
