It's probably some kind of service fee. I was charged like this in Italy once, and the car dealership at the time explained it as a service fee.

Because the car rental company helps you pay in advance, the contract will be written very clearly.

This morning I went to the hotel to store my luggage. I stopped by the taxi parking line at the door to unload my luggage. The police came in less than two minutes. They gave me a ticket. I was standing next to the car at the time and couldn't even say I would leave right away. It's really unfortunate. I returned the car after storing the luggage. In the end, I lost a lot in the last few minutes. Could someone help me see how to pay the fine ? United Kingdom Q&A
