While many car classes (like economy and compact) are available to young renters, restrictions usually apply to specialty and premium cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Leicester?
Most of the time, all you'll need is a current driver's license and credit card in your name when collecting the keys to your car. Proof of coverage may also be required if you decide to opt out of the company's insurance plan. Requirements are likely to differ between suppliers, so remember to check in advance.
What side of the road do you drive on in Leicester?
You'll be driving on the left in Leicester. This means that the driver's seat and other controls are also on the opposite side. Set aside some extra time to get familiar with your new ride before you hit the open road.

Can I drive in Leicester 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 in order to rent a car. It's also important to note that if an IDP is required, 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, make sure the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. A few other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in most countries 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 cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the rules and regulations before you drive off the lot. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental vehicle.
