How old do you have to be to rent a car in San José?
Drivers have to be at least 21. But there are a handful of age-related rules you should know about before you reserve your San José wheels. If you're a younger driver, most rental providers will charge an additional daily fee and limit the types of cars you can rent. The precise surcharge, and which age range it applies to, differs between providers. It's a good idea to compare the requirements.
What do you need to rent a car in San José?
Two things — your driver's license and a credit card in your name. Most car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of alternative coverage if you choose to opt out. Check your policy terms and conditions to avoid any issues.
What side of the road do you drive on in San José?
Getting behind the wheel in San José will feel like second nature to drivers from the States. This destination, and the rest of Argentina, sticks to the right side of the road.

Where can I find a San José car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver hoping to rent a vehicle in San José, we suggest reading the policies of the car rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be extra fees if you're between 21 and 24 years of age. To avoid any unwanted surprises on pickup, make sure you know exactly what to expect.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in San José?
A thorough insurance policy is a good idea for your San José escape. That's why we recommend opting in to collision protection while booking your car rental with Expedia. This covers your vehicle from theft, accident damage and vandalism. Some destinations may also require a minimum level of liability insurance. This might be included in your rental price or your personal auto insurance, so check what you're covered for.
Can I drive in San José with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Argentina, then you may need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence in order to rent a car. Also consider that if you do need an IDP, it won't be valid on its own. You'll need to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some other requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over 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 what kinds of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the rules and regulations before you drive away. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with your rental car.
