How old do you have to be to rent a car in São Paulo?
São Paulo rules state drivers must be 21 and over before they can rent a vehicle. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra charge and tighter rental conditions. Many companies impose a young renter fee on top of the standard car rental rate. This helps cover the extra risk of accident or damage. While many car categories (like economy and compact) are available to young motorists, restrictions generally apply to luxury cars.
What do you need to rent a car in São Paulo?
Renting a car in São Paulo is easy as pie. Usually, all that's required is a current driver's licence and a credit card in your name. Once you've settled on your ride, check your policy to ensure there are no additional requirements before pickup.
What side of the road do you drive on in São Paulo?
Traffic drives on the right and passes on the left in Brazil — the same side as in the U.S. Motoring around São Paulo won't be exactly the same as home, though. We recommend familiarising yourself with the local road rules.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in São Paulo?
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 incredible options from numerous trusted companies.
Where can I find a São Paulo car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some São Paulo providers will rent to drivers under 25, and others won't. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you should do your homework. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some outlets will have a surcharge for young customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always look through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
