Question 1

What should I do if I damage a car hire car in Denmark?

Accepted Answer

If you damage a rent car in Denmark, the Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) typically covers the cost of repairs. To avoid additional expenses, make sure your insurance policy includes zero excess coverage. If your CDW has an excess limit, you'll be responsible for paying part of the repair costs, which is usually deducted from the deposit you provided when renting the car. For specific details on coverage and potential charges, it's best to check your hire agreement and insurance policy before you drive.

Question 2

Can another person drive my hire vehicle?

Accepted Answer

Yes, another person can drive your rent 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. There may be an extra fee for adding additional drivers, and they must meet the same age and driving licence requirements as the primary driver. Check with the car hire company for specific terms and conditions.

Question 3

Why is a Credit Card required for car hire in Denmark?

Accepted Answer

To rent a car in Denmark, a credit card is typically required to secure your reservation and cover any potential surcharges, such as tolls, damages, or fuel. Major credit cards like Visa, MasterCard, or Discover are accepted for this purpose. The credit card must be in the primary driver's name to ensure financial responsibility for the vehicle. While some locations may accept debit cards, they often require additional documentation or a credit check. For a hassle-free hire experience, it's advisable to use a major credit card like Visa, MasterCard, or Discover.

Question 4

Can international visitors rent a car in Denmark

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can rent a car as a foreigner in Denmark. However, you will need a valid international driving permit (IDP) along with your home country driver’s license. Additionally, be prepared to provide a credit card for the deposit and reservation. Hire requirements may vary by company, so it's a good idea to check with the car hire provider or use our website, VoyageCopilot.com, to find car hire options and requirements for international drivers.

Question 5

What are the requirements for renting a car in Denmark?

Accepted Answer

To rent a car in Denmark, you must meet several key requirements. These include being at least 21 years old, presenting a valid driver’s license, and providing a major credit card (such as Visa, MasterCard, or Discover) for payment and security purposes. Additionally, proof of insurance or the option to purchase insurance coverage from the hire company may be required. Insurance options can vary by location, so it's important to verify the details with the hire company ahead of time. Be sure to review any additional documentation or requirements specific to the car hire location.

Question 6

What type of car is recommended for driving in Denmark

Accepted Answer

In Denmark, you can usually rent a variety of car types including Mini, Economy, Compact, Compact SUV, Wagon, Intermediate SUV, Intermediate, and People Carrier. These options cater to different needs and preferences, ensuring you find the right vehicle for your trip.

Question 7

What are the advantages of renting a car from Denmark?

Accepted Answer

Renting a car from Denmark offers several notable benefits. You can choose from a wide range of vehicles, including Vans, Sedans, SUVs, pickup trucks, compact cars, and specialty options like exotics. The station often provides a variety of larger vehicles as well, such as people carriers, 7-seaters, 8-seaters, 9-seaters, and 10-seaters. Additionally, you can conveniently reserve your car online and pick it up directly from the station, streamlining the car hire process. The station’s location typically offers efficient service, avoiding the complexities often associated with airport hires.

Question 8

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 9

Can I bring pets when renting a car in Denmark?

Accepted Answer

In Denmark, most hire agencies, including Europcar, Keddy by Europcar, , , and , allow pets in their vehicles. Some companies may require pets to be transported in carriers, and you will generally need to clean the car interior and remove any pet hair to avoid additional cleaning fees. Service animals are an exception and are allowed in the vehicle without a carrier. For specific details on the pet policy, it's best to check with the hire company before your trip.

Question 10

Should I get insurance when renting a car in Denmark?

Accepted Answer

When renting a car in Denmark, valid insurance is required for financial protection; without it, your hire may be denied. If you already have insurance that covers international hires for your vehicle type or if your credit card offers hire insurance abroad, you might not need extra coverage. However, if these conditions don't apply to you, purchasing additional insurance is advisable. You can choose from options such as Excess Fee Insurance during the booking process on our website, or Full Coverage Insurance or Excess Reduction at the hire counter to ensure comprehensive protection.
