Question 12

Can I drive near Geneva (GVA-Cointrin Intl.) with my current driver's license?

Accepted Answer

If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Switzerland, then you'll likely need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country 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 have to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some added requirements for international car rentals are:

Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many 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 driving away. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on off-road areas with a rental car.
