Car hire FAQs

  • What are the requirements to hire a car in Denmark?

    Car hires in Denmark will let you freely explore the south of Scandinavia and beyond on your own schedule, but make sure you have all your documents and meet all requirements when booking. To hire a car in Denmark, the minimum age is usually at least 20 years old, but it may be higher depending on the car hire agency as well as the vehicle group. For example, the minimum age for economy car hire with Europcar is 23, while for convertible cars it is 28. Additionally, most companies will charge an additional fee, a "Young Driver Surcharge" for drivers younger than 26. All drivers must have a valid driving licence, which they must have held for at least one year, or even more depending on the vehicle group. Driving licences printed with non Roman alphabets, such as Cyrillic, etc., must be accompanied by an International Driving Permit, unless it is from a country within the European Union. A credit card will be needed during collection of your Denmark car hire. Debit cards are also commonly accepted but be sure to check with your provider.

  • What are the rules for driving in Denmark?

    Driving in Denmark is not too dissimilar from the UK, but there are one or two things to keep in mind. Like in most of Europe, remember that you will be driving on the right side of the road with your car hire in Denmark. Therefore, you also overtake from the left and give way to traffic from the left at a roundabout. Denmark’s national speed limits are usually- 50 km/h or 31 mph in the city and built up areas; 80km/h or 50 mph outside of the city; while on the motorway it can vary from 110 km/h or 68 mph, and 130 km/h or 81 mph. Always switch on the headlamps of your hire car in Denmark- this is a legal requirement at all times of the day, any day of the year.

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Denmark?

    With roads in excellent condition throughout the country, car hires in Denmark are a great way to see the countryside, and a luxury car hire will let you traverse in comfort and speed. However, for those spending most of their time within one city, a small car will serve them best due to the limited availability of parking. Cheap car hire in Denmark is available, with car hire locations throughout the country where you can find passenger van hire as well as luxury car hire.

  • What is the most popular car hire provider in Denmark?

    When hiring a car in Denmark, the most popular provider of hire cars among Cheapflights users is Alamo, and with prices around £33/day, it’s easy to understand why. The most popular car type from Alamo is ECONOMY, which starts as low as £6/day.

  • What is the cheapest city to get a rental car in Denmark?

    At £26/day, it is 27% cheaper on average to rent a car in Aarhus than any other city in Denmark. The cheapest price found in Denmark was for £15/day in Aarhus.

  • What side of the road do you drive on in Denmark?
