Good to know

  • Check each provider's age requirements before booking your rental in South Korea. Rules can vary, and some restrictions or fees may apply if you're a younger driver. At the start of your search, simply uncheck the 'Driver aged between 25–70' filter and enter your age to explore your options.

  • Kids coming with you? Child car seat laws vary according to the location, and the best setup may depend on their age, height and weight. Be sure to add the right one to your Yeosu car hire reservation.

  • You'll likely be asked for these three things when collecting your rental car: your physical driver's licence, another form of photo ID, and a credit card with enough funds to pay the security deposit. Debit cards usually aren't accepted. Your booking will show the full list of what's required.

  • Take your time getting acquainted with your rental. Fix your seat and mirrors, find the lights and wipers, and get comfortable with its handling before you set off. And remember to stick to the right side of the road in South Korea.

  • Local speed limits can vary, but it's typically around 45kph in built-up areas and 100kph or so on highways. Always obey the posted signs.

  • One of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination is around 8am. Get where you're going faster by avoiding rush hours in general.

  • The South Korean won (KRW) is the currency you'll be using for everyday purchases and excursions. Pay with a debit or credit card where you can, but carry a little cash when electronic payments aren't available.
