These car rental agencies' desks can be located at the arrival terminal at the Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport (HRE).
  • Zimbabwe has no specific laws guiding children's safety in rented cars. It is the responsibility of the parent to ensure the safety of their children by taking the following possible guidelines.

Second, infants under 12 months must be fastened rear-facing to the child restraint with a built-in harness.

The fee will include your car rental's Temporary Import Permit (TIP), third-party insurance cover, National Road Safety Fund levy, and the Road Transport Permit levy.
