Pricing & Quotations

Understand how a clear transport quotation is prepared for your exact duty.

Pricing depends on vehicle capacity, route distance, duty hours, number of trips, pickup points, contract duration and operating days. Send your exact schedule for a written quotation.

A monthly rate is calculated from route kilometres, shift timings, number of daily trips, working days, vehicle size and whether a dedicated vehicle is required.

Short-duration, daily, temporary and recurring contract arrangements may be available. The suitable package depends on the route and operational requirement.

Longer, fixed-route contracts can often be priced more efficiently than repeated one-time bookings. Final rates are confirmed after reviewing the full duty schedule.

Yes. We can prepare a written quotation using the route, schedule, vehicle requirement and billing details supplied by your company.

The confirmed quotation applies to the agreed route, timings, stops, kilometres and service period. Changes to the duty may require a revised quotation.

Inclusions & Extra Charges

Know what to verify before approving a booking or contract.

Your written quotation will clearly state the vehicle, driver, duty hours, route, operating days and any included transport charges. The quotation—not a general website price—is the final reference.

Inclusions can differ by service type and route. Fuel, Salik and other road charges will be shown as included, excluded or separately chargeable in the written quotation.

Airport parking and waiting arrangements depend on the terminal, vehicle and pickup plan. These charges will be identified in the airport-transfer quotation.

The quotation or tax invoice will show the applicable VAT treatment. Corporate customers should request a formal quotation if they need a complete cost breakdown.

Overtime may apply when the vehicle is used beyond the confirmed duty period. The agreed duty hours and overtime basis should be checked before booking.

Extra kilometres, unplanned stops or route changes may affect the price. Please provide every planned pickup and drop-off point before confirmation.

We recommend confirming the complete route, timing and inclusions in writing. Any known exclusions or conditional charges should appear in your quotation before you approve it.

Fleet, Capacity & Luggage

Choose a vehicle that fits both passengers and their luggage comfortably.

Our fleet categories include vans and buses suitable for small, medium and large groups, including Toyota Hiace, Toyota Coaster, Mitsubishi Rosa, Ashok Leyland and larger staff, school and luxury buses. Availability varies by date and duty.

A Toyota Hiace or similar passenger van may be suitable when luggage is limited. Airport groups with many bags may need a larger vehicle.

A Toyota Coaster or similar minibus is commonly considered for this range. The correct choice depends on actual seating configuration and luggage.

A medium or full-size bus may be recommended. Share the exact passenger count, luggage and trip type so our team can allocate the correct capacity.

Yes. Airport, tourism and event groups may need extra luggage space, so the vehicle should be selected using both passenger and bag counts.

A vehicle inspection or fleet discussion may be arranged for qualifying corporate, school and recurring transport requirements, subject to availability and appointment.

📅

Booking & Deposits

The information and steps needed to reserve the right vehicle.

Provide the customer or company name, contact number, service date, passenger count, pickup and drop-off locations, stops, reporting time, return time and any luggage or special requirements.

Book as early as possible for school periods, public holidays, exhibitions, conferences and large group movements. Short-notice requests remain subject to fleet and driver availability.

Same-day transport may be possible when a suitable vehicle and driver are available. Call or WhatsApp for the fastest availability check.

Some bookings require an advance payment or deposit to reserve the vehicle and driver. The amount, due date and balance terms will be stated in your quotation or booking confirmation.

A booking is confirmed only after Bab Al Madina issues written confirmation and any required advance payment or documents have been received.

Contact us immediately. Changes are subject to availability and may affect the price, vehicle allocation or cancellation terms.

Payments & Invoicing

Clear confirmation, billing and company-account information.

Approved payment options are provided with the quotation or invoice. Contact our team if your company requires bank-transfer details or a specific approved payment arrangement.

LPO or credit arrangements may be considered for approved corporate accounts after company details and commercial terms are reviewed.

A formal invoice can be issued using the customer or company billing details supplied during booking.

The due date depends on the booking or contract terms and will appear on the quotation, confirmation or invoice.

Payment records and booking confirmation can be provided after the payment is received and matched to the relevant quotation or invoice.

Cancellation & Changes

What happens when a confirmed journey or contract needs to change.

Cancellation terms depend on the booking type, notice period and vehicle commitment. The applicable charges or refund conditions must be checked in your written quotation or confirmation.

Refund eligibility depends on the agreed cancellation terms, how much notice is provided and whether operational costs have already been committed.

Tell us as soon as possible. We will check whether the vehicle schedule can be adjusted; waiting time, overtime or reallocation charges may apply.

A substantial change may require a different vehicle. Updating the vehicle is subject to availability and may change the quotation.

Rescheduling may be possible when requested early enough and when a suitable vehicle is available on the new date.

Important questions for schools, parents, trips and student movements.

We can discuss recurring school transport and buses for approved school trips or activities, subject to route, vehicle availability and applicable requirements.

Schools should request the documents relevant to the proposed vehicle, driver and duty during the quotation process. Specific compliance claims should be verified for the assigned service.

Routes can be assessed using student locations, school timing, travel time and vehicle capacity. Final stops require operational approval.

Attendant requirements depend on the type of school service and applicable arrangements. Confirm this requirement before requesting a quotation.

The communication and escalation process should be agreed with the school or contracting party before service begins.

Temporary or seasonal school-related transport may be available, subject to the activity, route, schedule and applicable requirements.
