Good to know

  • You'll need to bring a few things when picking up your rental car: a current driver's licence, another form of photo ID, and a credit card that can cover the security deposit. Debit cards usually aren't accepted. Any other requirements will be listed in your booking.

  • For first-time drivers in Poland, remember that traffic here sticks to the right side of the road.

  • Stay within the local speed limits. Most of the time that's around 45kph in urban areas and 125kph or so on highways, unless signs say otherwise.
