As a service, we will supply you with it. To request the document, you will have to contact the rental station or the reservation team in advance (only Monday-Friday). The document will be available for pick up at the agreed rental location within 2 working days.
Omitting this, you risk being refused to enter the foreign country or pay a fine there during a roadside check.

ATTENTION: In addition, a driving license in a form of physical document is obligatory outside Poland. As of today, your digital driver's license entitles you to drive only within Poland. Lack of a valid entitlement to drive outside Poland may result in a penalty for which we are not responsible.
