You can get a car hire in Faro using your UK driver’s licence – there’s no need for an International Driving Permit, as you’ll be under the ambit of EU policy in Portugal. The country is stricter than many when it comes to the minimum age to hire cars in Faro – you’ll have to be at least 25 years old. Check with the providers, though, as some will let you hire one if you’re 21, for a surcharge. If you’re 25 or older, you have a free choice of passenger van hire, economy car hire or luxury car hire in Faro.
Familiarise yourself with the local laws before you hire cars in Faro. First off, they drive on the right in Portugal, so be prepared for that adjustment. The speed limit in built-up zones is 50 km per hour (about 30 mph), and you can drive at 90-100 km per hour (about 55-62 mph) on the outskirts of those. The speed limit on motorways is 120 km per hour (just under 75 mph). Children under 12 must sit in the back in a child restraint seat. You can get these when you book car hire in Faro. Portugal's blood alcohol limit is 0.05%. It’s also always a good idea to check for recent law changes on the local authorities’ website before you travel, just to be on the safe side.

Faro itself is part modern resort, part old town, so a compact car or a small SUV is more suitable if you’re spending your stay in the city.
