Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Panama car reservation?
We realise that plans change at short notice. That's why the majority of prepaid rentals allow for a complete refund if you cancel a minimum of six hours before pickup. Your rental agreement should include all the details you need. If you can't find the answer there, our Customer Service Portal is available 24/7.
What types of cars can I rent in Panama?
Ease of parking, affordability and great mileage are among the reasons compact vehicles are the number once choice in Panama. Their small size makes them perfect for getting around the city. They're a good fit for couples, solo travellers and those on a budget. Of course, how you cruise around is your call! Go even smaller with an economy or mini, or stretch out in an intermediate or a full-size. Chasing a little luxury? Browse our premium rides.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Panama?
Panama requires drivers to be at least 21 to be able to rent a car. However, young drivers will be subject to a surcharge and some restrictions. Many outlets impose a daily young renter fee in addition to the normal car rental rate. This helps cover the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car classes (like compact and mid-size) are available to young drivers, restrictions generally apply to luxury and specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Panama?
Before you can get behind the wheel in Panama, you'll need a driver's licence and a credit card that matches the name on your licence. If you don't take out the company's insurance policy, you may also have to show proof of alternative coverage. Requirements can vary, so read the policy terms and conditions before you select a rental supplier.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Panama?
Whether you have plans to stick around Panama or journey beyond, it's easy to reserve a long-term rental with Expedia. Enter your trip information and pick-up/drop-off locations and we'll help you find cheap long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Panama car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look up the age policy of the Panama rental providers you're considering. If you're under 25 years of age, some outlets will charge additional costs. It's ideal to know about this ahead of time so you can plan your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own policies for younger drivers, so it'd be wise to do your research.
