Car hire FAQs

Find answers to frequently asked questions about car hires in Alicante, including policies, requirements, and more. FAQs were last updated on 13 June 2025.
  • What are the requirements to hire a car in Alicante?

    You’ll have to be at least 21 years of age to qualify for basic car hire in Alicante – and if you want to hire high-end or more powerful cars, you’ll need to be 23-25 or over, depending on which of the car hire locations in Alicante you use. You can get relatively cheap car hire in Alicante without needing an International Driving Permit, as long as you have a UK photocard driving licence. You must have held it for at least 12 months, but this is car hire company policy rather than Spanish law.

  • What are the rules for driving in Alicante?

    Like most of Europe, you’ll drive on the right-hand side in Spain, so consider an automatic for car hire in Alicante. You’ll have to book this well in advance, as most cars in Spain are manual. The speed limits have been reduced and are now 30 km/h (about 18.5 mph) on all single-lane roads in Alicante, and two-lane roads are limited to about 50 km/h (31 mph). Seatbelts are compulsory for all occupants, and the drink driving limit is stricter than that in the UK, at 0.5 mg per ml of blood, so be very aware of this if you hire cars in Alicante. When you arrive, check with the town’s traffic department for recent law changes that might affect your plans for Alicante car hire.
