FAQs about car rental in Porto
Whether it's your first time or your tenth renting a car, you may still have questions about the process. To help you navigate this, we've compiled a list of frequently asked questions about car rentals. This includes details on insurance, age and license requirements. Our goal is to equip you with the knowledge you need to make the most of your trip.
How old do I need to be to rent a car in Porto?

Can I rent a car without a credit card in Porto?
No, to rent a car in Porto, a credit card is essential. Specifically, when you arrive at the rental desk to collect your vehicle, you must present a valid credit card in the name of the primary driver listed on your voucher, ensuring it has sufficient credit for the security deposit.
The requirement for a credit card at the time of pickup is to allow the rental company to place a hold on the security deposit. Without a credit card, the rental company may deny you the vehicle or ask for additional insurance payments. Note that credit cards from extra drivers or cash deposits are not accepted. While a few rental companies might allow a debit card, this is quite uncommon. The security deposit will be released from your card once you return the car in the same condition as when you received it.
