How old do you have to be to rent a car in Basel?
If you're 21 and above, you can rent a vehicle in Basel. Bear in mind that most rental companies will charge young drivers an extra fee, which is meant to cover the higher damage or accident risk involved. Also, young drivers are generally restricted from renting specialty or luxury vehicles. Check the fine print before booking to avoid any surprises at pickup.
What do you need to rent a car in Basel?
Any rental company you select will require two things — a valid driver's licence and credit card. If you choose to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of other coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to collect your car.
What side of the road do you drive on in Basel?
Cruising around Basel may feel like second nature to drivers from the U.S. This place, and the rest of Switzerland, sticks to the right side of the road.

According to prices found within the past seven days, the lowest daily rate for a rental vehicle in Basel was AU$201. The second lowest price was AU$205 per day.

Where can I find a Basel car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look up the age policy of the Basel rental suppliers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years old, be mindful that some will charge extra costs. It's best to know about this before collecting the vehicle so you can plan your budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own terms and conditions for young drivers, so it pays to do your research.
