Important information about Helsinki car rentals

Can I drive out of Finland with a rental car from Helsinki?

The countries where you may take a rental car include Sweden, Norway, and Denmark. There is generally a flat fee to take your Helsinki car rental into another country, but there is no additional fee for taking a certain number of people or taking the car for any number of days.

Can you rent a rental car in Helsinki without a credit card?

While you may find that some local rental car companies will allow you to obtain car rentals in Helsinki without a credit card, most rental car companies are going to require a credit card to rent a cheap car rental in Helsinki to serve as security during the term of your rental. There are some rental car companies that may let you pay for your rental with a debit card, but even in these circumstances, you will still need a credit card to rent the car. It’s recommended to contact your rental company in advance to see what form of payment they accept.

What driving laws should I keep an eye out for in Helsinki?

One thing that may take some getting used to those driving car rentals in Helsinki is that traffic signs in Finland do not have any text. The only exception to this rule are stop signs. As such, it is important to have an understanding of what traffic signs mean before you start driving your electric car rental. In Finland, all traffic lights sit on the side of the street with none of them hanging over the street itself, so be mindful of that when driving luxury car rentals in Helsinki. If you are looking for street names while driving your passenger van rental in the city, they will generally be on the sides of buildings and not on signposts. Something drivers need to be aware of, and need to understand the rules of, are all the traffic circles you are sure to encounter while driving your economy car rental in Finland. When driving in Finland, other drivers will often blink lights at you to let you know of a hazard that may exist in the road ahead such as an accident. It's important to always use your lights when you are driving, to never turn on a red light, and always use your blinker. You should also remember that buses and pedestrians always have the right of way when you are on the road.

What documents does an international traveler need to rent a car in Helsinki?

When you are visiting Helsinki from another country and wish to rent a car from one of the many car rental locations in Helsinki, you must have a valid driver's license from your country of origin. The license in question must be in the name of the person that is renting the car and the license must have that person's photograph upon the license. The holder of the license must have held the license for at least one year prior to renting the car. If your license is not in the English language, you will most likely also need an International Driving Permit that the rental car company can use to translate your license into English.
