How old do you have to be to rent a car in Italy?
Italy rules state drivers must be 18 and above to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers can expect an extra charge and tighter rental conditions. Most companies impose a daily young renter fee on top of the usual rental rate. This covers the extra risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like mid-size and compact) are available to young motorists, restrictions generally apply to luxury and specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Italy?
You'll need to present a valid driver's licence and a credit card in your name when you get to the rental counter. Prior to the pickup date, check with your rental supplier whether anything else is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of auto insurance.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Italy?
You can rent a car for a month or even longer in Italy, so go on and extend your stay! Simply enter your trip dates into our long-term car rental deals page and find your perfect ride.
Where can I find an Italy car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Italy providers will rent to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won't. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you'll have to do some research. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some businesses will pass on a surcharge to customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
