How old do you have to be to rent a car in Katharagama?
Drivers 23 and over can hit the highway in Katharagama in a rental car. If you're a young motorist, a daily surcharge will apply. You'll generally have fewer car categories to select from, such as compact and mid-size, and may also be required to take out inclusive insurance. Always enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to learn if any surcharges or restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Katharagama?
Any rental company you select will ask for these two things — a current driver's licence and a credit card in your name. If you'd like to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.
What side of the road do you drive on in Katharagama?
Motorists in Katharagama drive on the left, and the driver's seat and some controls are on the opposite side to U.S. vehicles. Spend a bit of extra time getting familiar with your rental car before getting on the road.

You can rent a vehicle for a month or even longer in Katharagama, so go ahead and extend your stay! Just enter your trip dates into our long-term car rental deals page and lock in your ideal ride.
Where can I find a Katharagama car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the rental companies located in Katharagama. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found an outlet that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, bear in mind that extra costs may apply. Do some research into any extra charges before picking up the keys to your vehicle.
