What Documents to Bring When Picking Up a Scooter?

What documents do you need to bring when picking up a scooter? For a SiapPergi scooter rental, you only need a valid motorcycle licence and your passport or ID card, which you show at handover and we do not keep. Here is the full guide so your pickup goes quickly.

Documents you need at pickup

When your rental scooter is delivered to your hotel, villa, home or Ngurah Rai Airport, the team will ask for a few documents. Make sure you have everything ready before they arrive.

• A valid motorcycle licence (SIM C) for Indonesian riders.
• Your passport or ID card (KTP) as proof of identity. You show it; SiapPergi does not hold it.
• For foreign visitors: your home-country licence plus an International Driving Permit (IDP) with the motorcycle category.
• Minimum age 17 to rent a scooter.

Renting a car requires a valid car licence. For foreign visitors, a home-country licence plus an IDP is also required.

Why the IDP matters for foreign visitors

An IDP is not a replacement for your licence. It is an official translation that must be carried together with your original licence. Without an IDP with the motorcycle category, roadside checks can cause problems. Traffic rules and document requirements are set by the Indonesian government and the police, and they can change, so check official sources before you travel.

Checklist before you leave

Keep photos of your documents on your phone as a backup, but always bring the originals to handover.

The handover process on site

Once the team arrives at the location you gave, the steps are usually these:

1. The team checks your licence and your passport or ID card.
2. You inspect the scooter together: tyres, brakes, lights and oil have already been checked before rental.
3. Two helmets are included free with every scooter. You can add a raincoat (from Rp15.000) if you need one.
4. Payment is made on the spot, in Rupiah, once the vehicle has arrived.

Tips for a faster pickup

• Prepare your documents in a small bag before the team arrives, rather than searching for them on the road.
• Make sure the name on your licence matches the name on your passport or ID card.
• If you are staying in a villa with limited access, send location notes and a contact number through How to Book.
• Check the scooter yourself and note any small damage before you leave.

Why renting with SiapPergi simplifies paperwork

SiapPergi asks for no deposit and does not hold your passport or ID card. Delivery to your hotel, villa, home or Ngurah Rai Airport is included in the price, and the catalogue price is the same across Bali. Payment is made when the vehicle arrives, with no advance transfer. Every vehicle comes with its original registration (STNK) and official plates.

To see the options, look at scooter rental in Bali or car rental in Bali. For specific areas such as scooter rental in Kuta or scooter rental at Bali Airport, those pages explain the delivery details.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to bring my original passport? Yes, show your original passport or ID card. You do not need to hand it over, because it is not held.

Can I bring just a copy? It is best to bring the original. A copy is only useful as a backup.

What if my licence has expired? Do not rent a vehicle. Renew your licence or obtain valid documents first.
