Do I need a 4x4 car in Iceland?

Choose a 4x4 for winter trips and any highland routes. For summer Ring Road travel, a 2WD is often enough. Pick the car that matches your route and season.

Can I drive a rental car on F-roads in Iceland?

Only specific 4x4 categories are permitted on F-roads (highland mountain roads). Always check your vehicle’s terms and current conditions on road.is before you go.

Do I need an international driving permit (IDP)?

If your licence is in English or uses Roman letters, you usually don’t need an IDP. If not, bring an IDP alongside your home licence.

Your deal includes unlimited mileage, Collision Damage Waiver (CDW), and VAT. You also get 24/7 emergency support and our latest models (under 2 years old).

Where can I pick up my rental car?

Pick up at Keflavik International Airport (KEF) in the arrivals hall or Reykjavik downtown. We also operate 13 stations across Iceland for easy drop-off.

Can I rent without a credit card?

A credit card in the main driver’s name is required for a security authorisation hold based on the rental. We don’t take a deposit.

Are winter tyres included?

Yes. We fit season-appropriate tyres (including winter tyres when in season) to help you drive safely in changing conditions.

What is the fuel and mileage policy?

Mileage is unlimited. Fuel is typically full-to-full — return the car with the same level as pick-up.

What is the minimum age to rent?

The minimum age depends on the vehicle category. Most 2WD cars are available from 20+; many 4x4 and premium classes require 23+.
