Always enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to find out if any extra fees or restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Istanbul?
Your driver's licence and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? In that case, you're also likely to need proof of your own coverage. Requirements may differ between rental companies, so be sure to read through your policy.

Where can I find an Istanbul car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to investigate the age policy of the Istanbul rental providers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years of age, some outlets will charge additional costs. It's better to know this before arriving at the desk so you can have the funds ready. Every rental car company has its own terms and conditions for young drivers, so it's smart to do your research.
