In most cases, all you'll need is a valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name when collecting the keys to your vehicle.

What insurance should I choose for my car rental in São José?
After meticulously planning your big trip, don't skimp on safety — add collision protection while booking your São José rental car with Expedia.

Plus, with no deductible and 24/7 emergency support, you can breathe a little easier if the unexpected occurs.
Can I drive in São José with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Brazil, then you'll likely need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed 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 current driver's license your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some additional requirements 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 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 available to rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before you drive away. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on off-road areas with a rental vehicle.
