You should explain the problem to our representative as clearly as possible. Help will be sent to your location as soon as possible. You should remain close to your vehicle until assistance arrives. If there is a problem that cannot be fixed on spot, a replacement vehicle will be provided.
If I lose the car key, what should I do?
In case of key loss, you should contact the local station where you picked up the car. Our agents will bring you a replacement key. Key loss is not covered by insurance, so extra charges will apply.

Car Rental

All drivers must present a valid driver’s EU license or international license (for non-EU drivers) and a valid ID card or passport.
I forgot my driving license at home. Can I still rent the car?
