How old do you have to be to rent a car in Empangeni?
If you're 18 and above, you can rent a vehicle in Empangeni. Be mindful that rental outlets will charge young drivers an additional fee, which is meant to cover the higher damage risk involved. Also, young drivers often aren't permitted to rent larger vehicles and luxury cars. Carefully read the fine print before booking to avoid any surprises when it's time to pick up the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Empangeni?
Generally, all you'll need is a driver's license and a credit card in the same name when collecting your vehicle. You may also need proof of coverage if you'd prefer to opt out of the company's insurance policy. These requirements often differ between rental outlets, so it's a good idea to check the terms and conditions.
What side of the road do you drive on in Empangeni?
In Empangeni, you'll need to drive on the left side of the road. This can be daunting enough, but the driver's seat and some controls are also on the opposite side to the U.S. For a safer ride, take things slow at first and allow yourself extra time to get from A to B.

Where can I find an Empangeni car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Empangeni companies will rent to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you'll need to do some research. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some outlets will pass on a surcharge to young customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always look through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Empangeni?
After meticulously planning your road trip, don't skimp on safety — purchase collision protection while reserving your Empangeni car rental with Expedia. There are lots of benefits to this plan, including up to $35,000 in primary coverage for theft, vandalism and collision damage. Plus, with a zero-dollar deductible and 24/7 emergency assistance, you can breathe a little easier if the unexpected occurs.
Can I drive in Empangeni with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in South Africa, then you may need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be allowed to rent a car. You should also note that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your current license your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some added requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 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: Make sure you read the fine print before getting behind the wheel. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on off-road areas with your rental car.
