If you can't see the answer there, our [Customer Service Portal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/service/?langid=2057) is always accessible. ### What types of cars can I rent in Ireland? > Minis are the smallest vehicle you can rent, and they're normally the most fuel-efficient too. That's why they're so popular with travellers to Ireland. Zip around the city's top attractions — you'll be astounded at the parking spots you can squeeze into. Prefer something a little more spacious?

A young driver surcharge typically applies, so check before you book and budget for any additional costs. There may also be restrictions on the types of vehicles that can be rented by young drivers. For instance, some providers will only hire out economy, compact and medium-sized cars to less-experienced motorists. Requirements may differ between companies, so be sure to read the fine print. ### What do you need to rent a car in Ireland? > Generally, all you'll need is a current driver's license and credit card in your name when collecting the car.
