\u2022 A valid driver\u2019s license <\/strong>\u2013 If you are an EU citizen, your national driver\u2019s license is sufficient. If you are coming from outside the EU, you will need an international driving permit.
\u2022 An ID card or passport <\/strong>\u2013 Depending on your country of origin, rental agencies may require additional identity verification.
\u2022 A debit or credit card <\/strong>\u2013 A debit card is usually sufficient as a deposit guarantee for picking up the vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"Car](\"https:\/\/blog1.adriagate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Untitled-design-2025-02-06T153652.508-890x1024.png\")
<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n3. Age Restrictions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The minimum age for renting a vehicle is usually 21 years, but for some vehicles, the requirement may be 25 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4. Insurance Conditions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The rental price includes basic insurance, which covers:
\u2022 Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) <\/strong>\u2013 Covers vehicle damage.
\u2022 Theft Protection<\/strong> \u2013 Covers theft of the vehicle.
Make sure to check the full insurance conditions to ensure you are covered in case of an accident or theft. Additional insurance or a higher coverage level is recommended if you plan to travel to islands or cross the border.<\/p>\n\n\n\n5. Fuel Policy and Full Tank<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Always check the fuel policy when picking up the vehicle. The usual rule is that you must return the car with the same amount of fuel as received. A full-to-full tank policy does not always apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
6. Roads and Traffic Regulations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n![\"Car](\"https:\/\/blog1.adriagate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Riviera-48.png\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nCroatia has a well-developed road network, but there are some specific traffic rules you should know:
\u2022 Speed limits<\/strong> \u2013 50 km\/h in urban areas, 90 km\/h on open roads, and up to 130 km\/h on highways.
\u2022 Alcohol limit<\/strong> \u2013 The legal blood alcohol limit is 0.5\u2030, except for professional drivers, who must have 0.0\u2030 (zero tolerance).

\u2022 Parking <\/strong>\u2013 Be aware of parking rules, as many cities have designated paid parking zones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n7. Additional Fees<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Before booking a vehicle, check for any additional fees, such as charges for extra equipment (GPS, child seats) or fees for returning the car to a different city.<\/p>\n\n\n
