  • Come prepared to avoid delays at pick-up. You'll typically need your physical driver's licence (no screenshots) and a second photo ID. Bring a credit card with enough balance for the deposit too. If anything extra is required, you'll find it in your booking.

  • If you're new to driving in Belgium, don't forget that traffic here sticks to the right side of the road.

  • Stay within local speed limits of about 45kph through built-up areas and around 110kph on highways. Road signs will show if a different limit applies.

  • In Belgium, the legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit is 0.05%. If you intend to have a few drinks, get someone else to do the driving or choose another way to travel.

  • Aim to travel outside high-traffic periods for a smoother trip. 8am is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.

  • You'll be using the euro (EUR) here. Along with your bank cards, have some cash on hand for smaller purchases.
