Documents you'll need

You’ll need your driving licence, passport and a credit card to rent a car in Bucharest.

Most visitors can use their regular licence. If your licence isn’t in English, you may need an International Driving Permit (IDP). Rental companies also check identification that matches your booking.

Navigating city driving

Driving is simple on larger routes, though traffic often slows around major squares. Navigation apps help you avoid congestion and guide you to parks, shopping areas and nearby districts.

Tolls, emissions zones and charges

Some national roads outside Bucharest have tolls.

The city itself has no tolls or emissions zones. Toll roads in the wider region are clearly signed on long-distance routes, and most visitors only encounter them when travelling between major cities.

Parking your car in Bucharest

Street parking fills quickly on busy days. Multi-storey car parks provide reliable access to shops, offices and restaurants. Always check signposts for time limits, payment hours and local fees.

Finding fuel or charging points

Petrol stations sit on major routes, and EV charging stations in Bucharest are increasing. Chargers are common near retail centres and offices. Apps like PlugShare help you check availability before longer journeys.

Local driving style and tips

Drivers are confident on wide roads and slower on narrow streets.

Expect busy junctions during peak hours. Keep speeds steady, use early signals and watch for pedestrians crossing between cars, especially near markets and transport hubs.
