How old do you have to be to rent a car in Harz?
Harz rules state drivers must be 18 and above before they can rent a car. However, young drivers can expect an extra charge and some restrictions. Most suppliers impose a daily young renter fee on top of the normal car rental rate. This helps cover the extra risk of damage or accident. While many car classes (like compact and economy) are available to young renters, restrictions generally apply to specialty and luxury vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Harz?
The essentials are your driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of other coverage if you opt out. Make sure you check with your supplier to avoid any hassles.
What side of the road do you drive on in Harz?
Cars drive on the right and pass on the left in Germany — the same as in the States. Travelling around Harz won't be exactly the same as home, though. You should familiarise yourself with the local road rules.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Harz?
Yes, and you'll find your perfect wheels on our long-term car rental deals page. Just enter your trip information and we'll list excellent options from various trusted suppliers.
Where can I find a Harz car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look into the age policy of the Harz rental providers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years of age, some outlets will charge extra costs. It's ideal to know this before arriving at the desk so you can have the funds ready. Every rental car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so it pays to do your research.
