How old do you have to be to rent a car in Santa Maria?
Drivers need to be at least 18. But there are some age-related restrictions you should keep in mind before you lock in your Santa Maria wheels. If you're a younger motorist, rental providers will likely charge an extra fee and limit the kinds of cars you're able to rent. This size of the surcharge, and which age range it applies to, varies between companies. Take your time to compare the requirements.
What do you need to rent a car in Santa Maria?
Any rental company you select will need these two things — a valid driver's license and credit card. If you choose to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.
What side of the road do you drive on in Santa Maria?
Whether you're spending time in Santa Maria or touring around Brazil, you'll be driving on the right side. While this is obviously the same as at home, you will notice differences in traffic rules.

Where can I find a Santa Maria car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver hoping to book a rental in Santa Maria, you'll need to check the policies of the rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be extra fees if you're between 21 and 24 years of age. To escape any unpleasant surprises on pickup, make sure you know what to expect.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Santa Maria?
You should have collision protection to safeguard your Santa Maria rental car against theft, vandalism and accident damage. And with Expedia, you can easily purchase this insurance for your vehicle during the booking process. Covering primary physical damage of up to $35,000, it also offers 24-hour emergency help and a zero-dollar deductible in the event of a claim. Plans changed? If you cancel your policy before your scheduled collection time, you'll get all your money back.
Can I drive in Santa Maria with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Brazil, then you might need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be able to rent a car. You should also note that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your current license your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some other requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in most places 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 cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before driving away. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with your rental car.
