How old do you have to be to rent a car in São Cristóvão?
São Cristóvão requires drivers to be 21 and above to rent a car. However, young drivers will be subject to a surcharge and some restrictions on choice. Many outlets 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 classes (like compact and economy) are available to young motorists, restrictions usually apply to specialty and luxury vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in São Cristóvão?
A valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name are two essentials. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? In that case, you may also require proof of other coverage. Rules may differ between rental companies, so have a thorough read of your policy.
