Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my São José car reservation?
No need to stress. You should be given all of your money back if you let us know at least six hours ahead of collecting the car. Your confirmation contains details about this, as does our Customer Service Portal. Not all reservations qualify for a refund though, so it's a good idea to check your car's cancellation policy.
What types of cars can I rent in São José?
Crowded city streets and narrow parking spaces are no sweat for an economy car — the most popular type of rental in São José. Jump behind the wheel of one of these and drive around traffic easily. Affordable, reliable and with terrific mileage, these small rides pack plenty of punch. But São José can be explored in almost any sort of rental you like. Compact, full-size and premium vehicles are some other options to choose from.
How do I find the best car rental deals in São José with Expedia?

How old do you have to be to rent a car in São José?
The youngest age you can rent a vehicle in São José is 21. An extra fee for young drivers applies, so check before booking and factor in possible additional costs. There could also be restrictions on the sorts of vehicles that can be rented by young drivers. For instance, some companies will only rent out small and medium-sized cars to less-experienced motorists. Requirements may differ between providers, so be sure to read the fine print.
What do you need to rent a car in São José?
Be prepared to present your driver's licence and a credit card when you get to the rental counter. Prior to pickup, check with your selected rental company whether anything else is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of auto insurance.

In São José and around Brazil, people drive on the right side of the road. While this is the same as in the U.S, make sure you're aware of any different traffic rules.

Where can I find a São José car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look up the age policy of the São José rental providers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years of age, be mindful that some will charge additional fees.
