Car Hire in Jardim Pinheiros, Sao Paulo, Brazil

Car rental companies usually require a credit card deposit that is temporarily held. Inquire about the deposit amount and its release after returning the vehicle.

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

Before returning the car, clarify the return procedures with the rental agency. Knowing where to drop off the vehicle and any necessary inspections can ease the process.

If you're looking for extra comfort or features, ask about upgrade possibilities at the rental desk. Often, there are discounted upgrades available at pickup.

Before renting, confirm if your personal auto insurance extends to rental vehicles. Many policies and credit cards offer this coverage, helping you avoid extra charges.

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

If you plan to share driving, check if the rental company allows a second driver and whether there are additional fees. Some companies offer free second driver options under certain conditions.

If you have a specific vehicle model in mind, opt for rentals that assure the car type. This prevents surprises at pickup if a different vehicle is provided.
