How old do you have to be to rent a car in Porto?

Rental companies impose what is known as a young renter surcharge, which is an additional fee to the cost of the rental car. Restrictions usually apply to the sorts of cars available to young people as well. Age limits may vary between companies, so check before booking.
What do you need to rent a car in Porto?
You'll need to present a valid driver's licence and a credit card in your name at the rental counter. Prior to pickup, check with your chosen rental company whether anything else is needed. For example, you may also need to show proof of auto insurance.
What side of the road do you drive on in Porto?
Traffic drives on the right and passes on the left in Portugal — the same as in the States. Motoring around Porto won't be exactly like home, though. You'll want to brush up on the local traffic rules.

Where can I find a Porto car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Porto outlets will rent to drivers under 25, and others won't. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you'll want to do your homework. Also, find out if there are any additional costs. Some businesses will pass on a surcharge to young customers between 21 and 24. Make sure you read through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
