Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Hamburg car reservation?
You should receive a complete refund on your booking if you advise us a minimum of six hours before the scheduled collection time. Look through your car rental agreement for the specifics. Our Customer Service Portal may have the answers too.
What types of cars can I rent in Hamburg?
Affordable, easy to drive and good on mileage, it's no coincidence that compact vehicles are the most commonly booked rental type in Hamburg. Explore this city in one of these and you'll be able to fit into tight parking spaces and easily dart around busy streets. A compact is perfect for city getaways or quick road trips. But they're not your only choice. Go even smaller with an economy ride or stretch out in a full-size or premium — there's a style of vehicle to suit you!

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Hamburg?
Hamburg rules state drivers must be at least 21 to be able to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers can expect a surcharge and some restrictions. Most suppliers impose a daily young renter fee on top of the usual car rental rate. This helps cover the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like compact and economy) are available to young drivers, restrictions generally apply to luxury and specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Hamburg?
The main things are a valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Many car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of alternative coverage if you opt out. Make sure you check with your rental agency to avoid any problems.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Hamburg?
Expedia makes it a breeze to score a reliable long-term car rental in Hamburg. Just visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your details and browse the possibilities.
Where can I find a Hamburg car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental companies, so be prepared to do a little research. Managed to find a Hamburg outlet that does rent to drivers under 25? Great news! Just bear in mind that a surcharge often applies to drivers between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're interested in should have all the details you need.
