How old do you have to be to rent a car in Ratnapura?

Restrictions usually apply to the types of cars available to young people as well. Age limits may vary between suppliers, so check before you book.
What do you need to rent a car in Ratnapura?
You'll generally require a valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name when collecting the car. You may also need proof of coverage if you decide to opt out of the company's insurance policy. Requirements are likely to differ between rental companies, so it's a good idea to check before you book.
What side of the road do you drive on in Ratnapura?
If you're renting a vehicle in Ratnapura or road-tripping around Sri Lanka, you'll be driving on the left side of the road. Also, the driver's seat and some controls will be on the opposite side of what you're used to in the U.S. This may feel a little unfamiliar at first, so drive with extra care.

Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some businesses will have a surcharge for young drivers between 21 and 24. Be sure to read through the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
