List of required documents

Attention!

A valid international driving license is required

1. Driver license
2. Credit card
3. Voucher
4. Passport

Frequent Questions and Answers

  • Proof of identity (a passport is required for non-EU citizens)
  • A valid driver's license, bearing in mind that licenses that have been declared lost or stolen or that have been restricted or suspended will not be accepted. An international driver license must typically be submitted with a national permit for non-EU citizens in order to be accepted.
  • The person who is renting the car should be the one making the payment, thus it must be done in a way that is made in your name.
  • Additionally, a deposit is needed to cover any potential additional costs or to pay any damage done during the rental.

A credit card is required by almost all rental companies. Cards that are electronic, virtual, or debit may not be accepted. If you acquire complete insurance coverage straight from the rental company's office, certain firms may, as an exception, take a debit card.

Rent a car without a deposit

The rental car companies in Germany can only guarantee a certain type of car, not an exact make or model. Car rental companies have cars from many different brands in the same category. These cars should have the same features that were confirmed at the time of the reservation. Here is an explanation of the various car classes:

Car rental models

You may be able to reserve a specific model in some cases. You will notice a special note next to the vehicle in the search results if such a possibility exists.

You can rent almost any kind of car in Germany, from small, cheap cars to high-end ones. Here are some things you might want to think about:

A size of the car: A bigger car may be more comfortable on the highway, but many beautiful villages in Germany have narrow streets. Parking garages are often small, and getting in and out of them can be a nightmare. Citroen C1 is the most well-liked model among economy classes in Germany. From EUROPCAR the daily rate for this vehicle begins at 13$. For those who want some extra comfort and have the appropriate budget, EAST COAST is ready to offer a Business-class model - Nissan Maxima, price starts at 60$ per day.
Most rental cars in Germany are manual, but more and more automatic cars are becoming available. Automatic cars usually cost more to rent, and if your license only lets you drive an automatic car, you won't be able to rent a stick shift car.

The freedom to see sights at your own pace and on your own timetable is a major perk of having a rental car while on vacation. It's nice to be able to schedule your travel whenever you'd like, whether that's at the crack of dawn or after midnight to avoid crowded bus or train times.

Third party insurance is often included in the rental price, which covers damage and injuries done by a third party and their vehicle, even if you are liable for it. However, this policy does not protect the driver or the vehicle in the event of an accident.
The deductibles (for losses not covered by the rental agency) that are included in many base contracts are typically quite large. In the event that you cause an accident while renting a car, you will be held financially accountable for the deductible amount specified in your rental agreement.
In case of an accident or theft, you can purchase additional insurance through the rental agency.
Purchase insurance while booking your car:

Car rental insurance

A rental car typically costs 21$ a day. However, the costs start at 9$ per day and can go as high as 102$ per day. The final price is directly influenced by the category of rental vehicles, the vehicle's features, your age, the date of booking, the length of the rental, etc.
