Driver's License Requirements for Renting a Sports Car

License & Requirements 5 min read Updated: Apr 8, 2026

Not every sports car can be rented by every license holder. Age, how long you have held your license and sometimes driving experience all play a role. The exact requirements are set by the provider; here are the typical values.

Minimum age and license duration (guide values)

Class	Minimum age	License held for
Supercars	23–25 years	2–3 years
Luxury Sedans	23–25 years	2–3 years
Convertibles & Roadsters	23–25 years	2–3 years
Luxury SUVs	23–25 years	2–3 years
Classic Cars	25 years	3 years
Chauffeur Service	23–25 years	2–3 years
Wedding Cars	25 years	3 years

Which license do you need?

As a rule, a valid EU driver's license (Class B) is sufficient. Guests from non-EU countries often also need an international driving permit (see our guide on the international driving permit).

Is driving experience checked?

For high-performance vehicles, many providers give a short briefing at handover. It covers driving modes and controls and is not a formal test. Some providers ask for additional documentation for very high-value vehicles.

Tip: State your age and how long you have held your license in your inquiry. That way the provider can suggest a suitable vehicle right away.

Additional driver

With many providers, a second driver can be added for an extra charge, provided they meet the same requirements.
