Can I rent a car in Aleppo for a month or longer?
Yes — monthly and longer rentals can be arranged on request. The important part is that a long rental is not simply a short one repeated. Different things matter: how the kilometre allowance is counted, what happens at a service interval, who deals with a tyre, and how the handover works at both ends.
The number that decides everything: mileage
The published Auris allowance is 150 km per day and 3,500 km per month, with extra kilometres charged at $1 in Syria. On a one-month booking, that distinction is the whole conversation.
| Your usage | Monthly distance | Sits inside 3,500 km? |
|---|---|---|
| City only, short daily trips | 600–1,200 km | Comfortably |
| City plus a weekly day out | 1,500–2,200 km | Yes |
| Weekly intercity trips (Hama, Homs) | 2,500–3,200 km | Tight but workable |
| Regular Damascus runs (≈700 km return) | 3,000–4,500 km | Likely over — budget for extra km |
Ask one specific question before you commit: is the allowance counted per day or pooled across the month? It changes the maths completely for anyone whose usage is uneven — three quiet weeks and one heavy one is fine if pooled, expensive if not.
Servicing and wear over a long rental
Over weeks, a car needs things a weekend rental never does. Agree in advance:
- Who arranges a service if the car reaches an interval during your rental, and whether you lose use of it for a day.
- Tyres. Who deals with a puncture, and what happens on an intercity road rather than in the city.
- Cleaning. The published cleaning fee is $10, so agree the expected condition at return.
- Whether a vehicle swap is possible if something needs workshop time.
- How a roadside problem is handled — our roadside support guide covers how to frame it.
Delivery and collection
Over a month, delivery is more than a convenience — it is how you avoid two wasted half-days. Pickup and delivery can be arranged anywhere in Aleppo: a hotel, a home, an office, an agreed address, the Sheraton Aleppo meeting point, or Aleppo International Airport.
Two things worth settling at the start:
1. The collection point at the end. It does not have to be where you started; a return at a different agreed location in Aleppo can be requested.
2. The delivery charge, if any. No Aleppo figure is published, so ask. For reference the published Damascus figure is $15 and up, and Istanbul is $15–$30.
How the handover itself works is in how car delivery works in Aleppo.
Who a monthly rental in Aleppo actually suits
- Returning residents and visiting family staying several weeks, where daily taxis stop making sense quickly.
- Business visitors on an extended assignment — see business car rental in Aleppo.
- Anyone between cars, or waiting on a vehicle, who needs transport without a purchase.
- People splitting time between Aleppo and other Syrian cities, as long as the mileage question has been answered honestly.
What to send when you ask for a quote
Give the team enough to answer properly in one reply:
1. Start date and the length in weeks or months.
2. Your district in Aleppo, and the delivery and collection points.
3. A realistic monthly distance estimate — be honest here, it is cheaper than being optimistic.
4. How many drivers, and their documents.
5. Whether you expect intercity trips, and to where.
Before you commit
Ask these five, and keep the answers in the same WhatsApp thread:
- Is the mileage allowance per day or pooled over the month?
- What is charged for extra kilometres, and when is it settled?
- What is the deposit? The published Syria figure is $300 or $500.
- How are servicing, tyres and a possible swap handled?
- Where exactly is the car collected at the end?
Open the Aleppo car rental page or the long-term car rental page to start. For the Damascus equivalent, see long-term car rental in Damascus. Confirm the pickup location, the return location and any applicable conditions when booking.
