Higher age limits generally apply for luxury and specialty vehicles. Additionally, many companies will charge an additional fee for young renters. Check the rules before clicking the book button and factor any surcharge into your travel budget.

Where can I find a São José car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the car rental companies located in São José. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, take note that extra fees may apply. Conduct some research into what those charges could be before picking up the keys to your vehicle.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in São José?
A thorough insurance policy is a good idea for your São José trip. That's why we suggest purchasing collision protection while reserving your rental car with Expedia. This covers your vehicle from theft, vandalism and accident damage. Some destinations may require a minimum level of liability insurance. This may already be included in your rental price 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 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. You should also note that if an IDP is required, 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 ID as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. A few other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in many countries to rent a car. If you're younger, it might 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 fine print before sliding behind the wheel. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on off-road areas with a rental vehicle.
