Requirements for renting a vehicle

Although specific conditions may vary slightly between agencies, the general requirements for renting a car are:

  • Driving licence: You must present a valid driving licence held for at least one year. If your licence was issued outside the European Union, it is highly likely that you will need an International Driving Permit (IDP) together with your national licence.
  • Identification: A valid passport or national identity card.
  • Credit card: A credit card in the name of the main driver is required to place a security deposit hold. Most agencies do not accept debit cards for this purpose.
  • Minimum age: Generally, drivers must be at least 21 years old. Drivers under 25 are usually subject to an additional “young driver” surcharge and may face restrictions on certain premium vehicle categories.

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

Tips for renting a car in Poland

  1. Check that your driver's license is valid in Poland. 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.
