Good to know
Age requirements often vary by company and even car type, so be clear on the rules before you book. Some suppliers in Costa Rica may rent to younger drivers for an additional fee. If you're outside the typical age bracket, simply uncheck 'Driver aged between 25–70' and then enter how old you are to browse your options.

You'll need to hand over a few things when collecting your rental car: an official driver's license, another form of photo ID, and a credit card that can cover the security deposit. Debit cards are generally not accepted. Your booking will flag any other must-haves.
Driving in Costa Rica might take some adjustment for first-time visitors. Keep in mind you'll need to stick to the right side of the road.

The blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit in Costa Rica is 0.05%. Because alcohol doesn't affect all people equally, the best way to be sure you're safe to drive is not to drink anything at all.
