Car Rental Requirements

Minimum Age

In Brazil, the minimum age required to rent a vehicle is 21.

Driver’s License

Each driver must present a full, valid and original national driver's license held for minimum of 2 years. If your license is not in a language used in your destination country, an International Driver's Permit to accompany your national driver's license is highly recommended.

Photo Photo ID or Passport

Each driver must present a valid and original photo ID or passport.

Credit Card

You must present a personal credit card, valid in the country of pick-up, issued by a banking institution and with enough funds to put a hold for a security deposit. Third-party credit cards or cards not associated to banking institutions will not be accepted. The car rental company is solely responsible for approving the provided credit card. Online prepayment does not exempt the renter from providing a valid international credit card during vehicle pick-up. The rental company will place a hold in the amount of the security deposit and, when applicable, any additional local fees not covered in the prepaid voucher on the card provided at the rental location.

Booking Voucher

The renter must present a printout of the Booking Confirmation Voucher at the rental location. This document officially confirms all agreed upon services, payment conditions, rates, discounts, as well as vehicle availability within the group selected.
*Important Information: Car rental companies reserve the right to refuse service to underage or unlicensed drivers, those with poor credit history or individuals otherwise considered liabilities by the rental company.
