Vehicle Rental Requirements

To rent a car at Katowice Airport, you will generally need to meet the following requirements:

  • Driving licence: Must be valid and held for at least 1 or 2 years (varies by company). If your licence was not issued by a European Union country, it is recommended to present an International Driving Permit.
  • Minimum age: Most agencies require drivers to be at least 21 years old. Drivers under 25 are usually subject to an additional “young driver” surcharge.
  • Credit card: A credit card in the name of the main driver is mandatory to cover the security deposit (excess hold).
  • Proof of identity: A valid passport or national ID card to verify your identity.

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.
