Car Hire in Americanopolis, Sao Paulo, Brazil

Before renting a car, check if your personal car insurance covers rental losses. Many personal auto insurance policies and credit cards offer coverage for rentals, which could save you from extra insurance fees.

Before booking, review the rental agreement for any hidden fees such as airport surcharges, additional driver fees, or late return penalties. Understanding these can help you budget more effectively.

Before leaving the rental location, check that the vehicle is stocked with essential emergency supplies such as a spare tire, jack, and first aid kit.

Look up fuel prices in the area where you'll return the vehicle. Refueling at a local station is often cheaper than paying the rental company's rates.

If you plan to drive off-road, confirm with the rental company whether it’s permitted. Not all vehicles are suited for off-road conditions.

Some rental agreements come with mileage limits, while others offer unlimited mileage. Make sure to review the mileage policy to avoid unexpected fees.

Ensure that you have a valid driving licence with at least one year of driving experience. If you are a foreign driver travelling to Sao Paulo, an international driving permit may be required. Remember, hire rates can be higher for drivers under 25 or over 70
