Hello everyone, I have a question: after I have made a notarized document for German translation, it is said that I also need to go to the Foreign Affairs Office to affix the seal of the German embassy. Is this the proper way to do it? Even if the police check, I am not afraid ? Germany Q&A

That's enough with the RentCarGo international driving license certification! There's no need to go through the hassle of getting a consulate translation. It's not just about the money, it's about not having the time or energy to do it. RentCarGo says it's okay, and the rental car company says it's okay, so what's the big deal? I've rented cars in Europe many times and have never had a problem with the police checking my license. So I'm not going to waste my time doing this. If there is a problem, I'll definitely hold RentCarGo accountable. Can they handle it ? Germany Q&A

Which one is cost-effective depends on the number of people. The fare for public transportation in Germany is not cheap. The cost for two or more round trips may be equal to the parking fee. The key is to save time. Since we hope to spend more time sightseeing, it's best not to waste time on public transportation ? Germany Q&A

Can you tell me that I paid the deposit with my domestic credit card in Europcar in Germany. It has been a week since I returned the car, but the deposit has not been credited in time. Today, when I asked the rental company, they told me that the deposit has been unlocked. What's going on? And the bank shows "deduction" instead of block ? Germany Q&A

Dear experts, please help me with the following questions: 1. I will stay in Füssen for two days, mainly to visit Neuschwanstein Castle and Linderhof Palace (actual visiting time is one and a half days). 2. I will stay for two nights near Lake Königssee in Ramsau or Berchtesgaden, but I'm not sure which place is more suitable. 3. I will skip Salzburg and go directly from near Lake Königssee to visit St. Wolfgang and Grundlsee (mainly to visit Hallstatt) and stay for one night. 5. Two days in Vienna. 6. One day in Český Krumlov. 7. Two and a half days in Prague. Is this itinerary feasible ? Germany Q&A

I'm not used to the frequent changes of speed limit signs in Germany. After driving at 120km/h for a while, suddenly there's a sign indicating 80km/h. It's uncomfortable to brake hard, and the car behind me must have cursed me to death. So I had to slow down gradually afterwards, but in fact I had already entered the speed limit for some time. I'm not sure what the design of this kind of speed limit is for in Germany ? Germany Q&A

Hello, I rented a car in Germany to Austria and the Czech Republic, and then back to Germany. Caro company told me that I needed to buy a pass to go to the Czech Republic and Austria. On my way to Austria and the Czech Republic, I did not buy a highway ticket (I asked at the gas station on the way to the Czech Republic if they sold passes, and they said no). Now I am already in the Czech Republic. Do I need to buy one on the way back to Germany ? Germany Q&A

Yesterday when going down the slope of B500, the speed was greater than 80 and less than 70 (the speed limit is 70). I only noticed when I was close that there was a police car on the right side of the road in front of the car, and there was a police officer who seemed to be holding something (suspected to be a speed detector). He didn't let me stop, and I came directly. If a ticket is issued in this situation, how should it be calculated ? Germany Q&A

Then they gave me a piece of paper and a parking card, and I went to get the car myself. No one was in charge. When I got there, I found scratches on the back of the car. After taking a picture, I caught a passing staff member and told him about the situation. He then took a picture and registered it on his phone, and asked me to sign. I wonder how it will be when I return the car? Overall, the process of getting the car is not complicated, but the experience is not good ? Germany Q&A

I forgot where I saw it about the ticket issue. It was said that if you repeatedly search for the same destination within a certain period of time, the ticket price will go up. Later, I tried it and found that it really went down after a few days. It is said that it is the system's response based on the data in the background ? Germany Q&A

In Germany, there is a fine of 30 euros for illegal parking, which was paid by transferring the money to a local Chinese person. After returning the car, a notification was received that the full deposit of 1000 euros would be refunded within an hour. Recently, an email was received, which seems to be a charge of 24 euros from the car rental company. Is this the so-called penalty management service fee? How can this be transferred in China, and what are the consequences if it is not paid? Does anyone know ? Germany Q&A

Violations generally do not receive information so quickly, unless they are fines issued on the spot. The pre-authorized deduction should be part of the fees charged by the car rental company other than the car rental. Please carefully check the bill to see if there are any fees that you did not notice. The car rental company will not help you handle violations, so they will not pre-authorize fees to handle them ?

Some people are willing to save tens of yuan a day, carefully checking scratches when picking up and returning the car, and paying first and then claiming compensation when an accident occurs. Some people are willing to spend money to save trouble, leaving the keys and walking away after returning the car. It's just a matter of personal habit ? Germany Q&A
