Car hire FAQs

What are the requirements to hire a car in Vienna?
When planning your car hire in Vienna, it's important to understand the requirements you'll need to meet and some additional information that'll be useful. To start with, you'll need to be at least 19 years old to hire a car in Vienna. If you're younger than 25, you'll want to check the surcharge policy to see if there's an additional cost for being a young driver. If you're a non-EU resident, you'll need to bring an International Driver's Permit. Lastly, you'll want to bring your confirmation details from your online booking, the same credit card used to make the purchase as well as a photo ID, such as a passport. You cannot pick up a cheap car hire in Vienna with the credit card of a person who isn't present; keep this in mind.
What are the rules for driving in Vienna?
It's important to be aware of the local driving laws when hiring a car in Vienna, both for your safety and other drivers’. You'll drive your hired vehicle on the right-hand side of the road in Vienna, and you'll pass other cars on the left. It's compulsory for you and all passengers to wear seat belts at all times while in the car. Drinking and driving is illegal in Vienna, with a legal blood alcohol level of 0.05% for experienced drivers and 0.01% for those with less than two years experience. If you're caught breaking this law, you could face hefty fines and the revocation of your licence. Visitors could also end up banned from driving in Austria again.
What type of car is recommended for driving in Vienna?
Driving in Vienna is typically easier than travelling in other larger cities or areas in Europe. Choosing the right kind of car hire in Vienna largely depends on your needs and wants. If you're travelling around with fewer passengers, consider picking a smaller, lighter car hire for better handling and fuel efficiency. The Fiat Panda is a popular choice for many travellers. If you're driving around with a larger group or planning a longer trip through the countryside, check out the SUVs on offer, such as the Ford EcoSport.
