For a safe, stress-free trip, add Expedia's collision damage protection to your car rental reservation. This insurance covers your ride against theft, vandalism and collision damage.

Question 10

Can I drive in Punta Carretas with my current driver's license?

Accepted Answer

If you don't have a driver's license issued in Uruguay, then you'll likely need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country in order to rent a car. It's also important to note that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll be asked to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

Age restrictions: You need to be at least 25 in most places to rent a car. If you're younger, 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 available to 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 go off-roading with a rental car.
