If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Brazil, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country in order 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 driver's license 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 driver's license and passport. Some other requirements for international car rentals are:

• Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older 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 the types of vehicles available to rent.
• Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive away. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with your rental car.
