What do you need to rent a car in Costa Rica?
Before you can hop behind the wheel in Costa Rica, you’ll need a driver’s license and a credit card. If you don’t take out the rental company’s insurance plan, you may also have to show proof of alternative coverage. Rules can vary, so read the policy terms and conditions before you select a rental provider.

Where can I find a Costa Rica car rental if I am younger than 25?
Whether you can rent a vehicle if you are under 25 in Costa Rica often depends on the rental supplier you choose. Some businesses have a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24 years old, whereas others may not have any extra fees for this age bracket. It’d be smart to go through the terms and conditions of your preferred rental dealer to avoid unnecessary costs when picking up your keys.
