It provides primary coverage for collision damage, vandalism and theft up to $35,000, as well as round-the-clock emergency assistance. Don't wait until you reach the rental desk to insure your ride. Opt in to collision protection while reserving your Costa ride with Expedia and save money and time.
Can I drive in Costa with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Portugal, then it's likely you'll need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed to rent a car. You should also note that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll need to show your current license your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some additional requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be at least 25 in most places to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it might 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 cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the rules and regulations before you drive off the lot. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental vehicle.
