Question 1

Is a valid passport required for car hire in Huatulco, Huatulco?

Accepted Answer

For car hire in Huatulco station, a valid passport is generally required for international customers. Domestic renters typically only need a valid driver’s license. In the United States and Canada, residents usually need just a valid driver’s license to rent a vehicle. In Europe, EU residents can often use their home country driver’s license. However, identification requirements can vary by country and region, so it's always a good idea to check with the rental company for specific details before you travel.

Question 2

Do I need to return the car with a full tank of gas?

Accepted Answer

Whether you need to return the car with a full tank of gas depends on the fuel policy you select. With a full-to-full or same-to-same policy, you must return the vehicle with the same level of fuel it had when you picked it up. If you don’t, you’ll incur a charge for the missing fuel, usually at a rate higher than local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank, which means you won't need to refuel the car before returning it. However, this option typically results in a higher overall cost, as you’ll be charged the local gas price minus a discount per gallon.

Question 3

Can another person drive my rental vehicle?

Accepted Answer

Yes, another person can drive your hire vehicle, but they must be authorised by the hire company. Typically, you need to add them as an additional driver when booking or picking up the car.

Should I get insurance when renting a car in Huatulco?

Accepted Answer
