How old do you have to be to rent a car in Malta?
Malta requires drivers to be 21 and above to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers can expect an extra cost and tighter home conditions. Many outlets impose a daily young renter fee on top of the standard car rental rate. This covers the higher risk of accident or damage. While many car classes (like compact and mid-size) are available to young drivers, restrictions usually apply to luxury and specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Malta?
Most home companies will need these two things — a current driver’s license and credit card. If you want to opt out of the supplier’s insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring when it’s time to pick up the keys.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Malta?
Whether you’re planning to stick around Malta or explore what’s beyond, you can book a long-term holiday home with Expedia. Enter your trip information and pick-up/drop-off locations and we’ll help you find fantastic long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Malta car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to check the age policy of the Malta holiday home providers you’re considering. If you’re under 25 years old, be mindful that some will charge extra fees. It’s best to know about this before arriving at the desk so you can budget accordingly. Each holiday home car company has its own rules for young drivers, so it pays to do your research.
Can I drive in Malta with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license issued in the United States, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S, note that you’ll also need to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about rental cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you go to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your car rental. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
