Long term car rental Tunisia with VIPCAR is built for people who stay several weeks or several months: expats, remote workers, extended holidays, assignments and projects. Since 2001 we have run a fleet of 250+ vehicles from our hubs in Tunis, Gabès and Djerba, with lower weekly and monthly rates shown on every car page. The principle is simple: the longer you rent, the lower the daily rate, and 300 km per day are included, cumulative over the whole period. This page explains who the formula suits, how prices fall with duration, what to know about the deposit and insurance, and how to book long-term car rental in Tunisia with a fixed WhatsApp quote, 24/7.
Who is long-term car rental in Tunisia for?
Long-term car rental in Tunisia covers very different situations that share one thing: you need a reliable car for weeks or months without buying it, registering it or managing its upkeep. These are the profiles we serve most often:
Renting for a company, an NGO or a mission? Our corporate offer provides a framework contract with agreed rates, monthly invoicing and a dedicated account manager — see the companies section below.
- Expats and new arrivals: a car from your first week, while you settle in.
- Remote workers and digital nomads: a month or two between Tunis, Hammamet and Djerba at the monthly rate.
- Extended holidays and winter stays: several weeks in the sun without depending on public transport.
- Assignments and projects: consultants, technicians and site teams, with invoicing available.
- Families waiting for their own vehicle: import, purchase or repair in progress.
- Companies: pool and staff cars under a framework contract.
How rates fall with duration
Every car page shows its daily rate, then lower weekly and monthly tiers. The daily price applied depends on the total length of your long term car rental in Tunisia: the longer the rental, the lower the rate per day. On a Kia Picanto as on a Toyota Corolla, the gap between the single-day rate and the monthly tier is significant — the exact price of each tier, with a EUR conversion, is on each vehicle page and is the figure your quote is based on.
Seasonal rates also exist, so your start date matters. Beyond one month — two months, a quarter, a year — we prepare a fixed quote matched to the duration, the vehicle and the intended use, sent in writing on WhatsApp. Note that this is a rental contract, not a lease with a purchase option: you use the car for the agreed period and hand it back.
Mileage: 300 km/day, cumulative and adaptable on contract
Every rental includes 300 km per day. On a long-term rental in Tunisia this allowance accumulates over the whole period: you spread your kilometres freely between quiet weeks and weeks on the road. For most expats, remote workers and families that is more than enough, including weekends in Sousse, Kairouan or the south, without watching the odometer every day.
If your use is different — daily commutes to a remote site, regional rounds, several drivers — tell us at quote stage: mileage conditions are adapted to the contract and confirmed at booking, before you set off. Nothing is left to interpretation on return day: the agreed allowance, the named drivers and the fuel level are all written into the contract.
Which car for several months?
On a long rental the right choice depends less on day one than on everyday life: parking, regular routes, passengers, the roads you will actually drive. The whole fleet is available by the month; these are the models we recommend most often for long-term car rental in Tunisia:
Torn between two? Send us your typical use on WhatsApp and we will suggest the vehicle that best fits your monthly budget, with its deposit and price tiers.
- City, every day: Hyundai i20 or Volkswagen Golf 8 — easy to park, frugal (compact category).
- Comfort on the road: Toyota Corolla or Volkswagen Passat — sedans for regular Tunis, Sousse and Sfax runs (sedan category).
- Family and secondary roads: Toyota RAV4 or Volkswagen T-Cross — ground clearance and boot space (SUV category).
- Sites and fieldwork: Toyota Hilux, a pick-up for project teams.
- Tight budget: Kia Picanto, the lowest monthly rate in the fleet (economy category).
Deposit, insurance and upkeep on a long rental
The deposit works exactly as it does on a short rental: refundable, held for the rental and returned in full when the car comes back in good condition. It is 1,500–3,000 TND for economy cars, 5,000 TND for standard cars and 6,000–8,000 TND for luxury cars, and it is your maximum liability: nothing is ever charged beyond it. Credit or debit card, both are accepted.
The insurance included is basic third-party cover; we do not sell extra packages — the deposit model above replaces them. The terms of periodic servicing, vehicle exchange and extension over several months are confirmed in the contract before departure — ask for them at quote stage. Fuel stays full-to-full. The full detail is in our deposit policy.
Delivery and vehicle exchange in Tunis, Gabès, Djerba
Long term car rental in Tunisia starts wherever you are: at your home, your office, your hotel or in the arrivals hall at Tunis-Carthage (TUN), Djerba-Zarzis (DJE) and Enfidha-Hammamet (NBE) airports, where delivery and collection are free, 24/7. Our three hubs — Tunis Lac 2, Gabès and Djerba — cover the whole country, and delivery elsewhere in Tunisia is confirmed at booking.
During the contract, everything is handled on WhatsApp: a one-month extension, a change of category, returning the car in another city (one-way between Tunis, Djerba and Gabès, €70–€100 depending on the route, confirmed at booking). Corporate clients have a dedicated account manager for these requests. Prefer not to drive? A private chauffeur in a Mercedes E-Class or V-Class is available on quote.
Companies: long-term rental with invoicing
For a company, an NGO or a diplomatic mission, long-term rental is organised under a framework contract: vehicle classes, agreed rates by duration, priority availability, adapted mileage conditions, delivery points. Invoicing is monthly, with purchase orders and settlement by bank transfer, in TND, EUR, USD, GBP or SAR. A dedicated account manager handles vehicle exchanges, extensions and additional drivers.
Opening an account takes three steps: you describe your needs, we propose a framework, we move your teams. For executives and guests, the same team arranges an executive chauffeur in a Mercedes E-Class or V-Class with French- and English-speaking drivers. See our corporate car rental in Tunisia page and our executive chauffeur offer, then open your corporate account.
