Car hire agencies in France generally require you to be at least 21 years of age and to have held your driving licence for at least 1 year before you can rent a car.

When renting, consider well the services that may be included in the quote such as insurance for damage, tax, accident coverage clause, to name but a few.

Insurance is normally included in the rental package, but the damage coverage clauses can vary greatly depending on the rental company.

The most important item to consider and assess is the franchise, i.e. the amount you will be required to pay to the company in the event of an accident at your fault, theft or damage to the car by unknown parties. This is usually around EUR 500 for a small vehicle.
