How old do you have to be to rent a car in San Jose?
Rental vehicle rules in San Jose require drivers to be 21 and over. Are you a young driver? Some surcharges and restrictions could apply. Most rental providers impose what is known as a young driver surcharge, which is an additional fee to the rental car cost. Restrictions usually apply to the sorts of cars available to young motorists as well. Age limits may differ between providers, so check before you book.
What do you need to rent a car in San Jose?
Most rental companies will need these two things — a current driver’s license and credit card. If you’d prefer to opt out of the supplier’s insurance plan, proof of other coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring with you to the rental counter.
What side of the road do you drive on in San Jose?
Traffic drives on the right and passes on the left in Philippines — the same side as in the U.S. Motoring around San Jose won’t be exactly the same as home, though. It’s a good idea to acquaint yourself with the local traffic rules.

Where can I find a San Jose car rental if I am younger than 25?

Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be extra costs if you’re between 21 and 24 years of age. To escape any unwanted surprises at the rental counter, make sure you know exactly what to expect.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in San Jose?

And with Expedia, you can easily add this insurance to your vehicle at the time of booking. Providing up to $35,000 in primary coverage, it also offers 24/7 emergency support and a zero-dollar deductible in the event of a claim. Plans changed? If you cancel your policy before your scheduled collection time, you’ll receive a complete refund.
