Requirements for Renting a Vehicle

To rent a car in France, the following requirements generally apply:

  • Minimum Age: Most companies require the driver to be at least 21 years old. Drivers under 25 often incur a young driver surcharge.
  • Valid Driving Licence: A valid driving licence from the country of residence is required. If the licence is not in the Latin alphabet, an International Driving Permit (IDP) must be presented along with the original licence. For most EU and EEA countries, the national licence is sufficient.
  • Credit Card: A major credit card in the name of the main driver is essential for the security deposit. Debit cards or cash are usually not accepted for this purpose.
  • Identification Document: A valid passport or identity card.

It is advisable to check the specific requirements with the chosen rental company prior to arrival, as they may vary slightly.

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

Tips for renting a car in France

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