What do you need to rent a car in Donegal?

What side of the road do you drive on in Donegal?
In Donegal, motorists drive on the left-hand side of the road. This in itself can be daunting, but the driver's seat and some controls are also on the opposite side to what you're used to. To stay safe, take things slow at first and allow yourself extra time to arrive at your destination.

Just be aware that some companies charge extra fees to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're interested in will have all the information you need.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Donegal?
A thorough insurance plan is a good idea for your upcoming Donegal escape. That's why we suggest choosing collision protection while reserving your rental car with Expedia. This insures your vehicle against theft, vandalism and accident damage. Some destinations may also require a minimum level of liability insurance. It's possible that this is included in your rental cost or your personal auto insurance, so check what you're covered for and whether you need it.
Can I drive in Donegal with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Ireland, then you'll likely need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be able to rent a car. You should also be aware that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll need to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some additional requirements to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in most countries 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 vehicles available to rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before getting behind the wheel. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with a rental vehicle.
