Add a car seat to your Emmen car rental booking if you're planning to travel with the kids. Requirements change from one place to another, but using a child seat suited to their size, weight and age is always the safest approach.
You'll be asked for some documents when you get to the rental counter. As a general rule, bring your physical driver's licence, a credit card with room for the security deposit (most companies don't accept debit cards), and another form of photo ID. Your booking will lay out the exact list.
Familiarise yourself with your rental. Fix your seat and mirrors, test the brakes and blinkers, and get used to its handling before you set off. And don't forget to stick to the right side of the road in Switzerland.
Local speed limits are usually about 45kph through urban areas and around 110kph on highways. Always check the posted signs, as limits may vary.
