Question 6

Do I need a valid passport to rent a car from Sixt in Amsterdam?

Accepted Answer

A valid passport is typically required for international customers renting a vehicle from Sixt in Amsterdam. For domestic renters, a valid driver’s license is usually sufficient.

In Europe, residents of EU countries can often rent with just a driver’s license from their home country. Always verify the specific identification requirements with the rental company, as they can vary based on the country and region.

Question 7

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

Accepted Answer

The Sixt fuel policy you select in Amsterdam will determine your fueling responsibilities. With a full-to-full or same-to-same option, you need to return the car with the same amount of fuel it had at pickup. If not, you'll be charged for the missing fuel at a rate higher than the local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank. This means you won't need to refuel the car before returning it. However, the cost will be higher overall since you'll be charged the local gas price minus a per-gallon discount, leading to an increased total cost.
