A thorough insurance policy is a fantastic idea for your upcoming Skaftafell vacation. That's why we recommend opting in to collision protection while reserving your car rental with Expedia.

This may already be included in your rental cost or your own auto insurance, so check what you're covered for.
Can I drive in Skaftafell with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Iceland, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be allowed to rent a car. It's also important to note that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity 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, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your 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 away. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or off road with a rental car.
