What insurance should I choose for my car rental in São José?
A thorough insurance plan is a good choice for your São José getaway. That's why we suggest opting in to collision protection while reserving your rental car with Expedia. This insures your vehicle against theft, vandalism and accident damage. Some destinations may require a minimum level of liability insurance. This might be included in your rental cost or your own auto insurance, so check what you're covered for and whether you need it.
Can I drive in São José with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Brazil, then it's likely you'll need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be allowed 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 current driver's license your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. A few other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or over in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger than that, 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 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 off road with a rental vehicle.
