Car Hire at Palma de Mallorca Airport

There is a wide range of car hire options, with counters conveniently located to ensure easy access for passengers. Hiring a vehicle is an excellent way to explore the island with complete freedom and flexibility.

The counters of the main car hire companies are located on Floor 0 (Arrivals Hall). Vehicle pick-up and drop-off are carried out on the different levels of the car park.

 

Requirements for Hiring a Vehicle

Although requirements may vary slightly between companies, the essential documents and conditions usually requested to formalise a hire agreement are:

  • Driving Licence: Must be original and valid. If it is not issued by a country of the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA), an International Driving Permit (IDP) may be required, especially if the licence is not in Spanish or a Latin-based language.
  • Identity Document/Passport: A valid official identity document (ID card) or passport is required.
  • Credit Card: A main credit card (not debit) in the name of the main driver is mandatory in order to block the deposit or rental guarantee. Without this card, it is very likely that the booking will be refused.
  • Minimum Age: The minimum age is usually 21. If the driver is between 21 and 25 years old, almost all companies will apply a daily young driver surcharge.
  • Licence Seniority: A minimum of one or two years of driving licence holding is generally required.

 5 tips for renting a car abroad

What to consider:
 
  1. Make sure your driver's license is valid in the destination country. Some countries also require an International Driving Permit (IDP). Keep in mind that the IDP is not valid on its own: it must always be carried together with your national driver's license.
  2. Check the documents and insurance required by local traffic laws, and what coverage is included in your rental (collision damage waiver, third-party liability, deductible).
  3. Learn the traffic rules of the destination country: speed limits on highways and city streets, right of way at intersections without traffic lights, blood alcohol limits, tolls, etc.
  4. Check which side of the road traffic drives on, and whether the steering wheel is on the same side as in your home country.
  5. Know what to do if you are involved in a traffic accident: who to call, what to document and how to report it to the rental company.
