How old do you have to be to rent a car in Panamá?
Anyone with a valid driver's licence aged 21 and over can rent a vehicle in Panamá. While some suppliers may be willing to accommodate drivers younger than 21, a fee will be added. Find out what age range the young driver surcharge applies to, and the associated cost, before booking. Suppliers also restrict the categories of cars available to young drivers. Higher limits are in place for specialty and luxury vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Panamá?
You'll generally require a valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name when collecting the keys to your vehicle. You may also need proof of coverage if you'd prefer to opt out of the company's insurance plan. Rules often differ between providers, so it's always wise to check before booking.
What side of the road do you drive on in Panamá?
Like the States, stick to the right in Brazil. But that doesn't mean that all road rules are the same. Research the traffic laws before motoring around Panamá.

Where can I find a Panamá car rental if I am younger than 25?
Whether or not you can rent a car if you're under 25 years in Panamá often depends on the rental provider you select. Some businesses have a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24 years old, whereas others may not apply any extra fees for this age group. It'd be good to go through the terms and conditions of your selected rental company to escape any surprise charges when collecting your car.
