Rent a Car Deposits in Turkey: How They Work and When You Get Your Money Back

When renting a car in Turkey, a security deposit (pre-authorization) is temporarily blocked on the primary driver's credit card. This protects against motorway tolls, parking fines, or missing fuel upon return.

Pre-Authorization vs Actual Charge

A pre-authorization is not a direct charge. It simply reserves a credit limit without debiting funds. Once the vehicle is returned in good order, Castle Rent A Car initiates the release immediately, which typically reflects on your account within 3 to 14 business days depending on your issuing bank.
