What happens if I need to cancel my Zurich car reservation?
When you cancel at least six hours prior to collecting the car, many prepaid bookings offer a full refund. However, not every one is eligible for this, so it’s important to understand the policy. Look over your confirmation for the specifics or visit our Customer Service Portal to find out more.
What types of cars can I rent in Zurich?
Whatever meets your needs! Go for a mid-size or full-size if you’re travelling with the family, or level up to a premium if you’re chasing sophistication. Or, choose an economy vehicle — the most popular home in Zurich. Affordable and with terrific mileage, they’re a good fit for solo travellers, couples or anyone else who doesn’t need a great deal of room. They’re especially suited to city driving. Getting into tight parking spots will be a piece of cake!

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Zurich?
Anyone with a valid driver’s license aged 21 and over can rent a car in Zurich. While some suppliers may be willing to rent to drivers younger than 21 you can expect extra fees. Find out what ages the young driver surcharge applies to, and the cost, before booking your wheels. Providers also restrict the categories of cars young drivers can rent. Higher age limits apply for large vehicles like premium SUVs and luxury models.
What do you need to rent a car in Zurich?
A valid driver’s license and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Don’t want to take out the company’s insurance plan? If that’s the case, you may need proof of your own coverage. The requirements may differ between home companies, so have a thorough read of your policy.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Zurich?
You can rent a car for a month or longer in Zurich, so go ahead and extend your well-deserved holiday! Just enter your trip dates into our long-term car rental deals page and book your ideal ride.
Where can I find a Zurich car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a younger driver looking for a car rental in Zurich, it’d be wise to check the policies of the various holiday home companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25 some may not. There may be surcharges if you’re aged between 21 and 24. To escape any surprise fees and charges at the holiday home counter, make sure you know what to expect.
Can I drive in Zurich with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license from the United States, you may be required to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S, be aware that you’ll also have to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the vehicle must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local regulations, and with the car rental company before you go to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you usually can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or go off-roading with your car rental. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
