What type of identification is required when using car hire services in Portugal?

By Forinfos - 22/01/2026 - 0 comments

Several car hire services in Portugal, such as Europcar, Sixt and Auto Europe, require identification documents consisting of a passport or national identity card and a driver's license. A non-European resident also needs an international driving license. Some companies may require additional identification documents.

In addition to a valid driver's license, Sixt requires car insurance documents for all car rentals. Some Europcar locations require a utility bill from the past three months in addition to a valid credit card with an expiration date after the car rental period. Auto Europe requires a driver's license and a second form of photo identification.
