Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my Basel-Stadt car reservation?
We all have times when even the best-laid plans go wrong. That's why we provide your money back on the majority of prepaid reservations if you advise us a minimum of six hours in advance of the pickup time. Remember to double-check the cancellation policy — there are some cases where it's not offered. Found nothing there? Our Customer Service Portal has more information.
What types of cars can I rent in Basel-Stadt?
Mini, economy, full-size, premium ... The choice is all yours! However, compact models are the most popular in Basel-Stadt. If you're after something affordable and small, but not too small, this category of rental car is a smart choice. Driving around traffic-filled streets will be a cinch in one of these. Compact cars offer a bit more room than economy models and are suited to families on a budget, couples or solo travellers.

Check out reviews and ratings, choose your car type and compare prices from the most popular suppliers. Expedia makes it a cinch to pick up the best deal on your rental wheels. Combine your Basel-Stadt car rental with flight or hotel bookings and drive off with even bigger savings.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Basel-Stadt?
If you're 21 and over, you can rent a vehicle in Basel-Stadt. Take note that rental providers will charge young drivers an additional fee, which is meant to cover the higher damage or accident risk involved. Also, young motorists usually aren't permitted to rent luxury cars or larger vehicles. Carefully read the terms and conditions before booking to avoid any hassles at pickup.
What do you need to rent a car in Basel-Stadt?
Generally, all that's required is a current driver's licence and credit card in your name when picking up the car. You may also need your own proof of coverage if you decide to opt out of the company's insurance policy. These requirements may differ between rental outlets, so remember to check in advance.
Can I drive in Basel-Stadt with my U.S. Driver's license?
Yes, you can. If you have a current U.S. License, you're allowed to drive in Basel-Stadt. You're not likely to need an International Driving Permit. But they are relatively simple to arrange, so it could be a wise move to organise one anyway.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Basel-Stadt?
Yes, so you won't need to rebook a rental car halfway through your holiday. Go to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your information and secure a ride to call your own for the duration of your escape.
Where can I find a Basel-Stadt car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Basel-Stadt outlets will rent cars to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won't. Age policies differ between suppliers, so you'll need to do some research. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some outlets will have a surcharge for young customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
