How old do you have to be to rent a car in Shongweni?
Drivers have to be at least 18. But there are a handful of age-related restrictions to keep in mind before you reserve your wheels in Shongweni. If you're a young driver, many rental providers will charge an additional fee and limit the kinds of vehicles you're able to rent. The surcharge, and which ages it applies to, differs between providers. It's a good idea to compare the rules.
What do you need to rent a car in Shongweni?
Renting a car in Shongweni is easy. Usually, all that's required is a valid driver's licence and a credit card. After selecting a great set of wheels, read your policy to ensure there are no extra requirements prior to the pickup date.
What side of the road do you drive on in Shongweni?
Unlike the States, motorists in Shongweni drive on the left-hand side of the road. Having the driver's seat and controls like indicators on the opposite side can also take a bit of getting used to. Spend some time familiarising yourself with the vehicle and its quirks before getting on the road.

Where can I find a Shongweni car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the car rental companies located in Shongweni. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found a supplier that does cater to drivers under the age of 25, take note that additional fees may apply. Conduct some research into what those charges could be before you collect the car.
