Good to know
Age requirements can vary by provider and even car type, so know the rules before you book. Some companies in Denmark may rent to younger drivers for an extra fee. If you fall outside the typical age range, just uncheck 'Driver aged between 25–70' and then enter how old you are to explore your options.
Travelling with kids? Car seat requirements differ from place to place, and the right setup may depend on their height, weight and age. Make sure you add the right one to your Aarhus car rental reservation.
You'll need to show some documents when you get to the rental desk. As a general rule, bring a valid driver's licence, a credit card with enough funds for the excess (most companies don't accept debit cards), and another form of photo ID. Your booking will outline the exact requirements.
Get familiar with your rental. Check your seat and mirrors, test the lights and blinkers, and get used to its handling before you set off. And remember to stick to the right side of the road in Denmark.
Local speed limits may vary, but it's typically around 45kph in urban areas and 110kph or so on highways. Always obey the road signs.
The blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit in Denmark is 0.05%. Because alcohol affects everyone differently, the best way to be sure you're safe to drive is not to drink at all.
One of the busiest times to be out on the roads in this destination is around 8am. Make travel easier by steering clear of peak periods.
