Car registration

• Dynamic pricing

  Dynamic pricing will help you optimize rental revenue by matching price with demand.

  During periods of low demand you can grant a discount for weekdays, while weekends will keep their regular price. When the demand is high, we'll keep your regular price for weekdays and add a premium to rentals during the weekend.

  Overnight rentals might have different demand per day, so each day will be adjusted individually. You can view the average discount/premium applied on the rental page below the pricing table.

  Periods of low and high demand are based on Nabobil's historical data.

• Car requirements

  Your car has to meet certain requirements in order to be registered on Nabobil.no.

  It has to meet the maintenance and security requirements, be EU approved and registered in your name. If you want to rent out a car on someone else's behalf, you will have to send an official authorization to us here.

  If your car is leased or financed in other ways you will have to check with your leasing company and their policies before you register the car on Nabobil.no.

  You need to have a valid insurance (minimum liability insurance according to Norwegian law).

  In addition the car cannot: 

  • be older than 15 years old (from the year of registration) 
  • weight more than 3500 kg
  • have a mileage of more than 300 000 km

  We need the following information:

  • The car's registration number 
  • At least one photo of the car
  • Other information in the car's listing such as special features. 

• How do I register my car for rent?

  1. Registration number
     Click the "Add my car" button on top of the page on the right hand side. Now fill in the registration number of your car. Check if all of the information is correct. The information is collected directly from Statens Vegvesens database. 

  2. Choose location and upload pictures
     
     If you activate "Location Services" on your profile the address from you current location will automatically be picked up by the system. You can also type the address in manually. Next step is to upload pictures of your car. Do this by clicking the upload button. Upload images of the cars four sides, the interior and other features if necessary. 
     
     
     
     You can drag and drop the files like this: 
     
     
     
     When you have uploaded the pictures, your car listing will be published with default settings and you are now one step closer to your first rental.
     
     

  3. Adjust price and mileage
     

     The price model will suggest certain default prices. You can easily change these to suit your car. You can also determine the maximum allowed mileage in a day, week and month. 

     If a renter exceeds the maximum limit you´ve set, they will have to pay a certain amount of NOK per extra kilometers driven. The default amount is 3 kroner, but you can change this amount to anywhere between 1-6 kroner. 

     In order for your car to be rented out as much as possible the price needs to be right. We recommend that you start with a low price to increase the demand from renters. When you have completed a few successful rental periods and received good reviews you can easily increase your prices. 

     To change your price settings press "My Cars" > choose the right car > click "Price and distance". Here you can determine price per hour, day, week and month. The same applies for mileage.

  4. Update your calendar
     
     We recommend that you always keep you calendar updated. You can choose dates that are either "Guaranteed Available", "Unsure" or "Not Available". The dates that you do not update will automatically be listed as available. By keeping you calendar updated at all times you won´t have to receive requests on days that aren´t good for you. The renters base their car search on date and time and by keeping your calendar updated you will contribute to a good user experience for both parties.
