Answers
What people ask
What is the refundable deposit?
The deposit is set for each car. You will find the amount on the car page. You pay it at handover by card block, bank transfer or cash. We return it within 72 hours after the car is returned. 2,000 CZK stays blocked for 30 days to cover possible fines.
How long must I have held a driving licence?
You must have held a valid driving licence for at least 2 years under the Czech Road Traffic Act.
What is the minimum driver age?
Minimum age is 21. Drivers under 21 pay a higher deposit.
Can I take the car abroad?
Leaving the country is allowed only with written consent and a surcharge for extended insurance. By default the rental applies within Czechia. Roadside help in Czechia is ÚAMK.
What insurance is included?
The price includes third-party liability and comprehensive cover with an excess (typically 5%, minimum 10,000 CZK). The excess can be reduced to 0% for a surcharge.
How many kilometres are included?
The standard limit is 110 km/day. It can be upgraded to 200 km/day or 500 km/day. Each extra kilometre is charged at that car's rate.
What fuel level should I return the car with?
Return the car with the same fuel level as at pickup. We record the level on the handover protocol. A shortfall is charged at the actual refuel cost.
What if I return the car late?
The rental is billed in 24-hour periods from pickup. A late return past the 30-minute grace period starts a new charged day. Confirm the return time when you book.
Who pays fines and tolls during the rental?
Traffic fines, parking tickets, vignettes and tolls during the rental are the customer's responsibility. We pass official notices to the named driver on the contract. We return the deposit within 72 hours after the car is returned. 2,000 CZK stays blocked for 30 days to cover possible fines.
