What do you need to rent a car in São Salvador?
Before you can take the wheel in São Salvador, you’ll need a valid driver’s license and a credit card. If you choose not to take out the company’s insurance policy, you may also have to provide proof of your own coverage. Requirements can vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you choose a rental supplier.
Can I drive in São Salvador with my U.S. Driver's license?
Yes, on the condition that your license is valid. But consider getting an International Driving Permit regardless. They’re relatively easy to arrange, and with one, you’re licensed to drive in other places if your vacation plans extend beyond São Salvador.

Expedia makes it a cinch to find an affordable long-term rental in São Salvador. Simply head to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip preferences and explore your possibilities.
Where can I find a São Salvador car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a younger driver hoping to rent a car in São Salvador, we recommend reading the policies of the rental companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. Surcharges may apply if you’re between 21 and 24 years of age. To escape any nasty surprises on pickup, make sure you know if any extra charges apply to you.
