Higher limits are in place for specialty and luxury vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Belfast?
In most cases, all you'll need is a valid driver's licence and credit card in your name when picking up the keys to your vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be needed if you decide to opt out of the company's insurance policy. Rules often differ between providers, so be sure to check before booking.
What side of the road do you drive on in Belfast?
You'll be driving on the left-hand side of the road in Belfast. This means that the driver's seat and controls are also on the opposite side to what you're used to. Allow some extra time to get the hang of your new wheels before driving off.

You can. We partner with reputable providers that offer weekly and monthly rentals for many car classes. Reserve one of our long-term car rental deals and discover every square inch of Belfast — or beyond!
Where can I find a Belfast car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the car rental companies located in Belfast. They often have different age policies. If you've found a place that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, take note that additional costs may apply. Do some research into any extra charges before booking your rental car.
