Requirements for renting a vehicle

To drive a rental car in Sweden, you will generally need to meet the following conditions:

  • Driving licence: You must present a valid driving licence held for at least one year (in some cases, two years for certain vehicle categories). If your licence is not issued by an EU/EEA country, it is recommended to carry an International Driving Permit.
  • Minimum age: Most agencies require the driver to be at least 21 years old. Please note that if you are under 25, a daily “young driver” surcharge is likely to apply and access to premium vehicles may be restricted.
  • Identification document: You must present your original passport or a valid national identity card.
  • Credit card: A credit card in the name of the main driver is required for the security deposit. Most companies at Arlanda do not accept debit cards or cash for this purpose.

Companies, opening hours and desk locations can change. Check with the rental company before booking.

Tips for renting a car in Sweden

  1. Check that your driver's license is valid in Sweden. Some countries also ask for an International Driving Permit (IDP), which is only valid together with your national license.
  2. Review what the rental includes: collision damage waiver, third-party liability and the deductible. Most companies also hold a deposit on a credit card in the driver's name.
  3. Learn the local rules before you drive: speed limits, right of way, alcohol limits and tolls.
  4. Check which side of the road traffic drives on and where the steering wheel is.
  5. At pickup, photograph the car (inside and out) and the fuel level, and keep the photos until the deposit is returned.
  6. Know what to do in an accident: who to call, what to document and how to report it to the rental company.
