How old do you have to be to rent a car in Heidelberg?
If you're 18 and above, you can rent a car in Heidelberg. Take into account that most rental suppliers will charge an additional fee if you're a young driver, which helps cover the higher damage risk involved.

What do you need to rent a car in Heidelberg?
While rules can differ between car rental outlets in Heidelberg, generally the essentials are a current driver's license and a credit card in your name. You don't need to take out insurance with your rental company. However, proof of your own coverage may be required.

What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Heidelberg?
For a smooth, stress-free trip, add Expedia's collision protection while reserving your rental car. This insurance covers your ride against accident damage, vandalism and theft.

Can I drive in Heidelberg with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in South Africa, then you might need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be able to rent a car. You should also be aware that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll have to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some additional requirements to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in most countries 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 vehicles available to rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before you drive away. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or off road with your rental car.
