How old do you have to be to hire a car in Heidelberg?

Heidelberg requires drivers to be 18 and over before they can hire a vehicle. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra cost and stricter rental conditions.

Accepted Answer

In most cases, all you'll need is a current driver's license and credit card in your name when collecting your car. Proof of coverage may also be required if you choose to opt out of the company's insurance policy. These requirements may differ between rental companies, so remember to check while booking.
