What do I need to rent a car from a car rental company?

To rent a car, you must meet the basic requirements - you must be the required age and have a driving licence.
In addition, the only thing needed is a credit or debit card. When you pick up your car at the car rental company, you will need:

  • Your voucher generated after ordering online - it serves as a confirmation of booking or payment for the rental car.
  • A credit or debit card with sufficient funds to pay the deposit - the deposit for the vehicle.
  • A driving licence valid for at least 12 months (in some cases it can be 24 months).
  • Your proof of identity - within the EU, an ID card or passport.

This is general information, different car hire companies may have specific conditions, so always check the terms and conditions of the specific car hire company before you travel.

What age is required to rent a car from a car rental company?

How old do you need to be to rent a car? In most cases, car rental companies require the driver to be between 21 and 70 years of age. However, it is often the case that if you are under 25 or over 70, you will have to pay an additional surcharge.

Can I rent a car for someone else?

You can rent a car from the car rental company for anyone who meets the rental conditions (age, driving licence, etc.). Simply fill in their personal details during the online booking process.

Are all charges included in the price of renting a car from a car rental company?

The bulk of our car rentals include theft protection, collision damage insurance (CDW), local taxes, airport surcharges and road taxes. You will pay for any extra services when you collect the car, such as young driver fees, additional driver fees or one-way hire. You'll find out about any additional charges directly when you book (and if you take your own child car seat or GPS, you can easily reduce your costs). For more information on what's included in the price, see the Terms and Conditions when you choose your car.
