How old do I need to be to drive a rental vehicle?

To drive our vehicles, you - and all of your drivers - need to be at least 21 years old and have held a full, valid driving licence for at least 2 years at the start of your rental. For car groups A, B and E you - and all the authorized drivers - need to be at least 19 years old and have held a full, valid driving licence issued from at least 1 year.
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 depend on where you're picking the vehicle up from - but you can expect it to be between EUR 21.39 (Vat included) and EUR 25.66 (Vat and airport/city surcharges included), per day, for each driver.
If you rent the vehicle for more than 15 days, you'll only be charged for a maximum of 15 days and get cover for the duration of your rental, up to 30 days.

Are there any maximum age restrictions?
No, so long as you hold a full, valid driving licence for at least 1 year.
