Renting a car seems like a simple enough process. You shop around and find the best deal, book it and pick it up. When you are renting a vehicle internationally, however, there are some additional things that you must be aware of.
International rentals are not extremely complicated, however when booking your international car hire there are some things that you need to realize. First of all, in many cases you will need an international driving permit in order to drive in another country. While some countries reciprocate with others, many do not. You will not only need to obtain an IDP before leaving your country of origin, but you will also probably be required to bring your current valid driver’s license as well. Since the IDP will need to be obtained in your own country you will need to find out several weeks in advance what documentation you will need before your travel abroad.
Once you find out about whether or not you are required to obtain an international driving permit, you should then ask if you will also need to provide an international insurance card. Be sure to ask this during the same conversation as the international driving permit, since this document also needs to be obtained in your home country and needs several weeks notice to obtain. Many insurance companies are located regionally, therefore being covered under your current insurance plan is usually not a problem.
