Where can I find a São Tomé car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look up the age policy of the São Tomé rental suppliers you're considering. If you're under 25 years of age, be aware that some will charge additional fees. It's best to know about this ahead of time so you can have the funds ready. Each rental car company has its own rules for younger drivers, so it pays to do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in São Tomé?
Make a safe start to your road trip by choosing Expedia's collision damage protection. While there are many types of car rental insurance, this is one you'll need to have. It provides primary coverage for theft, vandalism and collision damage up to $35,000, as well as round-the-clock emergency assistance. Don't wait until you arrive at the rental counter to insure your ride. Opt in to collision protection while reserving your São Tomé ride with Expedia and save money and time.
Can I drive in São Tomé with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Brazil, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be able to rent a car. Please also consider that if you do need an IDP, it won't be valid on its own. You'll be asked to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some additional requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You 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 off the lot. You typically can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on off-road areas with a rental car.
