How old do you have to be to rent a car in Bury St Edmunds?
At least 21. But there are a handful of age-related restrictions you should be aware of before you lock in your wheels in Bury St Edmunds.

The amount of the surcharge, and which ages it applies to, differs between companies. It's a good idea to compare the rules.
What do you need to rent a car in Bury St Edmunds?
Before you can get behind the wheel in Bury St Edmunds, you'll need a valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. If you prefer not to take out the company's insurance plan, you may also have to provide proof of other coverage. Rules can vary, so read the policy terms and conditions before you choose a rental supplier.
What side of the road do you drive on in Bury St Edmunds?
Unlike the United States, people in Bury St Edmunds drive on the left. Having the steering wheel and some controls on the opposite side can also take some getting used to. Spend some time familiarising yourself with the car and its quirks before driving off.
