How old do you have to be to rent a car in Panama?

While many car classes (like compact and mid-size) are available to young renters, restrictions generally apply to specialty and premium cars.

Renting a car in Panama is easy. Normally, all that's required is a valid driver's licence and a credit card. Once you've settled on your favourite set of wheels, read the terms and conditions to ensure there are no additional requirements prior to your scheduled pickup.
What side of the road do you drive on in Panama?
Unlike the States, motorists in Panama drive on the left-hand side of the road. Having the steering wheel and some controls on the opposite side can also take a bit of getting used to. Take a few moments to familiarise yourself with the vehicle and its quirks before getting on the road.

Where can I find a Panama car rental if I am younger than 25?

Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be extra fees if you're aged between 21 and 24.
