Au moment de la location, Avis accepte la plupart des cartes de crédit couramment acceptées.  Le nom du locataire doit figurer sur la carte de crédit.

Liste complète des cartes de crédit acceptées :  Carte de crédit Avis, American Express, AT&T Capital, Diner's Club Int'l, Discover, China UnionPay, JCB, MasterCard, et Visa.  Il est possible que certains établissements n'acceptent pas toutes les cartes de crédit indiquées.

Avis demandera une autorisation de prélever sur votre compte les frais de location estimés, mais se réserve le droit, à sa seule discrétion, de demander une valeur supplémentaire, basée sur certains facteurs, lorsque nous le jugerons opportun.

• Les locations peuvent nécessiter une retenue d'autorisation des frais de location estimés plus, 200,00 USD.
• Si vous avez prépayé la location, la retenue sera de 250,00 USD.

Lors de la retenue, vous n'aurez pas accès à ces fonds.  Une fois la location terminée, nous annulerons cette retenue, mais il est possible que la banque mette un certain temps à la créditer sur votre compte.

Remarque : Les cartes de crédit et les cartes-cadeaux prépayées ne sont pas des méthodes d'identification du crédit acceptées pour la prise en charge d'un véhicule, quelle que soit la succursale.  L’une des cartes mentionnées ci-dessus doit être présentée.  Les cartes de crédit prépayées sont acceptées au moment du retour seulement, si nous pouvons obtenir l’autorisation complète de la banque de la carte pour le montant total dû.

Participating locations will accept a Debit card, however, it must have an accepted bank processing logo (Visa, MasterCard, AMEX, Discover, etc) at the time of rental if you are at least 25 years of age with the following requirements:

• You will be subject to a credit check to determine and ensure credit worthiness before releasing the car to you.  If your credit file is frozen with Equifax, you will be required to lift the restriction prior to your rental.  Lifting the restriction does not guarantee that you will be able to rent a vehicle as you will still be subject to a credit check.

Avis may request an authorization hold against your account for the estimated rental charges of the rental, but reserves the right in its sole discretion to request an extra value to be based on certain factors as we deem appropriate:

• Most rentals may require an authorization hold of the estimated rental charges plus $200 USD.
• Rentals of 4 days or more may require an authorization hold of the estimated rental charges plus $300 USD.
• If you have prepaid the rental with a debit card, the hold is $250.00 USD.

THESE FUNDS WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR YOUR USE.  When the rental is over we will process the reversal, but the bank may take time to post it back to the account.  If you fail to return the vehicle as agreed, Avis will obtain additional authorizations from your account to cover the rental charges.  Avis is not responsible for any returned checks or overdraft fees based on this policy.

Positive identification in addition to your driver's license may be required.

Note: Prepaid Debit/Gift cards are not acceptable methods of credit identification to pick up a car at any location.  Prepaid Debit/Gift cards are accepted at time of return only.

At time of pick-up, driver must present a valid, U.S.-issued driver's license and credit card (or debit card at participating locations) in the driver's name.  If the driver's license is not issued in the U.S., you must present your drivers license and either a passport or a Canadian enhanced license in the driver's name.

At the time of rental, the renter or authorized driver may be subject to an electronic DMV check from the issuing state of the driver's license, or may be asked to sign a declaration attesting to specific criteria:

• The renter/authorized driver has a valid license that is not currently suspended, expired, revoked, canceled or surrendered.
• The renter/authorized driver has not, within the last 36 months had 1 or more convictions for reckless driving.

Fuel Service Charge. Most rentals come with a full tank of fuel, but that is not always the case.

Where available, if permitted by law, if you drive less than 75 miles, you acknowledge that we will add a flat fee to the rental, the amount of which will be disclosed on the Rental Contract and at the counter prior to rental. You may avoid this charge at time of return by providing a receipt for fuel purchased at which time the flat fee will be reversed from your total rental charges. If this subparagraph (a) does not apply, there are three refueling options:

1) If you do not accept the fuel service option, where available, at the beginning of your rental, and you return the car with less fuel than was in it when you received it, as we determine in our sole discretion, we will charge you a fuel service charge at the applicable rate per-mile or rate per-gallon specified on the Rental Contract or disclosed at the location. The per-mile rate is used if you do not buy fuel during the rental. To calculate this amount, we multiply the number of miles driven, as shown on the car’s odometer (or provided by the vehicle's telematics device), times the per-mile rate shown on the Rental Contract. The per gallon rate is used if you buy fuel during the rental and provide us with a receipt on our request, but the tank is not as full when you return the car as when you received the car (by using the factory installed gauge, rounded down to the nearest 1/8 tank), times the per-gallon rate shown on the Rental Contract.

Although two methods are used for ease of calculation, the per mile and per-gallon rates produce approximately the same result. Some of our cars are equipped with onboard telematics which record the actual amounts of fuel in the gas tank. In the event your car has such a device, you will be charged for the actual amount of gasoline needed to fill the tank based on the reading of this device.

2) If you accept the fuel service option at the beginning of your rental, you will be charged as shown on the Rental Contract for that purchase and you will not pay us a fuel service charge. If you choose this option, you will not incur an additional fuel service charge, but you will not receive any credit for fuel left in the tank at the time of return.  If you accept the partial fuel service option at the beginning of your rental, you will be charged as shown on the Rental Contract for that purchase and you will pay a fuel service charge for any fuel not covered by the partial fuel service option. The per-gallon cost of the fuel service option will always be lower than the fuel service charge. The cost of refueling the car yourself at a local service station may be lower than the fuel service charge or the fuel service option. You acknowledge that the fuel service charge is not a retail sale of fuel.

3) You may avoid a fuel service charge if you return the car with the fuel tank as full as when you received it and, if requested by us, present a receipt for your fuel purchase. If you put fuel into the car, you must use the correct fuel (having the grade of gasoline stated on the car fuel information decal, or on-road diesel). Do not use ethanol fuel even if the car states that it is a flex-fuel vehicle.

Renters who have indicated a country of residence outside of the US will be required to present a non US issued drivers license and a non US issued passport OR an international airline ticket at the time of rental to qualify for the rate.

 How old do I need to be to rent a vehicle?
To drive our vehicles, you - and all of your drivers - need to be at least 23 years old and have held a full, valid driving licence for at least 1 year at the start of your rental for cars and 2 years for vans. In Northern Ireland, you must hold a full, valid licence for at least 3 years. A higher minimum age limit may apply to certain vehicles.

How do I know if there are minimum age restrictions on my rental?
When you book, you'll be told if there are any minimum age restrictions for the vehicle you request. If you're not sure, please check your booking confirmation email - or call the reservations team.

 I'm under 25, do I need to pay a young driver surcharge?

If you or any of your drivers are under 25 when you pick up the vehicle, you will each have to pay a young driver surcharge. The cost for this will be £40.00 per day.

If you rent the vehicle for more than 10 days, you will be charged for a maximum of 10 days and get cover for the duration of your rental, up to 28 days.

Are there any maximum age restrictions?

Some of our locations have a maximum age restriction on their insurance policy. Anyone over the age of 75 you will need to contact us to make your booking. The maximum age limit in Jersey is 80 years old. In the Shetlands and Isle of Man the maximum age is 78.

I'm over 75, do I need to provide extra information or pay a senior driver surcharge?

If you or any of your drivers are over 75 on the day you return the vehicle, you will need to advise us prior to pickup up your vehicle. At some locations, we will seek approval to rent from our insurer.

In Northern Ireland, for any customers that are aged 75 years and over, we would require the following:

• Confirmation that you drive on a regular basis;
• Provision of a letter from your insurance company to confirm that you have an up-to-date insurance policy, and have not had any accidents in the past 5 years;
• Provision of a letter from your doctor confirming that you are in good health and fit to drive; and
• A driving assessment carried out in terms of your Avis rental agreement by a member of our staff sitting with you in the vehicle.

Electric Vehicles

How much battery charge should I return an electric vehicle with?
You must return the vehicle with at least a 70% battery charge, or the same % battery charge as it had at time of pick up.

What am I charged if I fail to return an electric vehicle with the required 70% battery charge, or the same % battery charge as it had at time of pick up?

We charge a fixed amount dependent on the battery life showing on the factory-installed battery gauge. This is the Pay on Return rate. The amounts charged are set below:

If you do not pay cash for tolls, you automatically opt into our e-toll service to which you agree to pay us or our toll program administrator with whom we will share your credit card/debit information for all tolls incurred during your rental and all related fees, charges and penalties. The e-toll fees may take 4-8 weeks after the rental to be billed to your credit card/debit card on file.
