What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Basildon?
We recommend adding collision damage protection while reserving your Basildon car rental with Expedia. This protects your ride against theft, vandalism and collision damage throughout your road trip.

Simply opt in to this insurance while making your booking.
Can I drive in Basildon with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in England, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence 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 need to show your current license 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. A few other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be at least 25 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 what kinds of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before getting behind the wheel. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental vehicle.
