Car hire FAQs

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

    Hiring a car in Montpellier makes it easy to explore the medieval city and the Mediterranean coast nearby, but make sure you meet all the requirements before booking. Depending on the car category, drivers have to be at least 18 years old to hire a car. On top of that, drivers under 25 years old are usually charged a Young Driver Surcharge. As well as having a valid driving licence, drivers are required to have one or more years of driving experience depending on the car hire agency and car category. The car hire agency might also ask for an identity card or a passport. A credit or debit card from an internationally recognised credit card company must be presented when collecting your Montpellier car hire.

  • What are the rules for driving in Montpellier?

    Driving in France is not drastically different from the UK. Like most of Europe, the main exception is that you drive on the right-hand side of the road and generally overtake from the left. At intersections, give way to vehicles approaching from your right, unless a diamond-shaped sign indicates who has priority. Speed limits are measured using the metric system: it is 50 km/h (31 mph) in built-up areas; 80 km/h (50 mph) on main roads outside built-up areas, 110 km/h (68 mph) on dual carriageways, and 130 km/h (81 mph) on major motorways.
