How old do you have to be to rent a car in Bournemouth?
In Bournemouth, the requirement is generally 21 years and over. Most companies will charge extra fees for young drivers, which can vary based on the rental location. Rental agreements for young drivers may restrict certain vehicles, such as luxury cars, and require comprehensive insurance to be taken out. Be sure to read the fine print carefully before booking your wheels.
What do you need to rent a car in Bournemouth?
Before you can take the wheel in Bournemouth, you'll need a driver's license and a credit card that matches the name on your license. If you choose not to take out the rental company's insurance plan, you may also have to provide proof of alternative coverage. Requirements can vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you select a rental provider.
What side of the road do you drive on in Bournemouth?
In Bournemouth, like all of England, motorists drive on the left-hand side of the road. Slow down and get comfortable driving on the left if you've never done it before.

Where can I find a Bournemouth car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to investigate the age policy of the Bournemouth rental providers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years old, some will charge extra fees. It's handy to know about this ahead of time so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own rules for younger drivers, so it'd be wise to do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Bournemouth?
After meticulously planning your road trip, don't skimp on your insurance — add collision protection while booking your Bournemouth rental vehicle with Expedia. There are numerous benefits to this plan, including up to $35,000 in primary coverage for collision damage, theft and vandalism. Plus, with no deductible and round-the-clock emergency support, you'll be able to breathe a little easier should the unexpected occur.
Can I drive in Bournemouth with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in England, then it's likely you'll need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed to rent a car. Also consider that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll need to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some added requirements to rent a car internationally are:

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