If you don't have a driver's license issued in Greece, then you'll likely need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be able to rent a car.

Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some other requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be at least 25 in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it may still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of vehicles you can rent.
