What do you need to rent a car in Essen?
Any rental company you select will ask for these two things — your driver’s license and credit card. If you decide to opt out of the supplier’s insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring when it’s time to collect your car.
Can I drive in Essen with my U.S. Driver's license?
You can explore the roads of Essen with your U.S. Driver’s license. But if you’d like peace of mind, obtain an International Driving Permit before heading off. It’s an additional handy form of identification to have while you’re traveling.

You can rent a car for a month or even longer in Essen, so go on and extend that vacation! Just enter your trip dates into our long-term car rental deals page and lock in your perfect ride.
Where can I find an Essen car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a young driver hoping to rent a vehicle in Essen, check the policies of the car rental companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25 some may not. There may be additional costs if you’re between 21 and 24 years old. To escape any surprise fees and charges at the rental counter, make sure you know exactly what to expect.
