The car I rent is from Europcar at Frankfurt Airport. There is no mention of when I can go to Switzerland or Austria on the rental voucher. I am not sure if there will be additional charges when I pick up the car. I think it's a trap ? Germany Q&A
Does anyone know which car rental company will allow me to rent a good car if I am under 24? I thought it was either that you couldn't rent under 24 or that it was not allowed to cross the border into the Czech Republic and Italy ? Germany Q&A
Do I need to wash the car when returning it? Many people say no, but there are also car owners who have been charged cleaning fees and management fees, saying they were ripped off. I think it's up to your own judgment! If it's too dirty, washing it won't cost much. This is not a reason for certain car rental companies not to charge you ? Germany Q&A
Frank picked up the car and drove all the way in Germany. He has 2 kids, one 4 years old 108cm tall, and the other 10 years old 145cm tall. He forgot to rent the car seat and booster seat. Is it okay for the 2 kids to use the booster seat only? What's the price if we rent it from the car rental? What's the price if we buy it? Where can we buy it around Frankfurt airport ? Germany Q&A
Wow, you're really something. Could you please be responsible when answering others' questions? Do you think the European traffic violation system will break down by itself, or do you think the car rental company is so stupid that they can't find out who violated the rules and won't deduct the deposit and management fee? If you don't handle your own violations, the worst-case scenario is that the car rental company will deduct the fine and handling fee from the initial authorization, and if you have a lot of violations and don't pay, you can try it out ?

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
Driving in Germany by car in July. This week, I received a notice of violation from Europcar, saying that there was a violation in Stuttgart and 30 euros would be deducted from my credit card. Have any of you friends encountered similar situations? How should I deal with it? Just wait for him to deduct it? Is this amount a fine or a service fee from the car rental company? I ask for everyone's advice ? Germany Q&A
We were told when returning the car that it was in perfect condition and we could leave without worry. A few days later, the invoice arrived and we were charged an additional 1100 euros for damage. 1100 is the minimum amount charged in the car rental company's contract. We rented from Enterprise Berlin Zoo and returned it at Frankfurt Main Station. Have you ever encountered such a situation ? Germany Q&A
Want to drive from Füssen to Zugspitze, but I see that I have to pass through Switzerland. I didn't say I wanted to pass through Switzerland when I rented the car because I only planned to stay within Germany at the time. Can I go directly or do I need to call the rental company to report ? Germany Q&A
I also encountered this. When picking up the car, I was inexplicably charged 15.01 euros. When I asked the platform, they said it was for emergency road rescue insurance. I was puzzled because the rental company never mentioned anything about insurance. Why do they have this item ? Germany Q&A
We only plan to drive in Germany, now I heard from the group that to go to King Lake, we need to pass through a small part of Austria, do we need to inform the car rental company to leave the country ? Germany Q&A
Do you have experience renting a Volkswagen Caravelle 9-seater MPV? Is the seating arrangement 2+2+2+3? We are 8 people with 6 20-inch suitcases. Will it fit? How much is the deposit charged by the car rental company? Thank you ? 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
Hello everyone. Can I use the translation provided by the rental car for Road trip in Germany, Switzerland and Austria with just a driver's license? I used to check the guide and it said I needed to find a sworn translation ? Germany Q&A
I'm driving to Germany, Austria, and the Czech Republic by myself next month and have processed the translation and certification of my international driver's license on the website. Is this only recognized by car rental companies? If the traffic police check, will this be useful ? Germany Q&A
