Please ensure that you read these terms carefully as they will form the legal basis of a contract between yourself and the car rental company used.

A non-waivable deductible will apply in some countries if theft attempted theft; collision or vandalism damages the vehicle. A Credit card imprint will be required to cover this Value.

5. The minimum age of rental is generally 25 years of age in the Republic of Ireland and 23 Northern Ireland (only certain car groups may be rented by those 23-24, check the individual terms for the car group you are interested in). Drivers must have held a full valid driver's license for a minimum of one year before the rental commences, in some locations two years is required. All drivers must present their original driving license at the pick-up location at the start of rental. No photocopies or fax copies will be accepted and no refund will be issued due to the failure to present a valid original driving license. Some countries that require an English translation may also require an international driver's license.

6. All rentals are subject to standard terms and conditions of the rental agreement as signed at the time of vehicle pick up. Once the rental agreement is signed the contract is then with the car rental supplier in the country of collection. Only the vehicle group can be confirmed and not make or model of vehicle. Specific vehicle types cannot be confirmed and will be subject to availability at the time of pick up. When a vehicle group is not available the next group of vehicle will be provided.

7. Rentals are calculated on a 24-hour period from the time of pick-up. To avoid additional charges the renter must return the vehicle at the same time as the pick up time on the agreed return date stated on this voucher. Failure to return the vehicle on the agreed return date will result in additional charges. Additional charges will be charged at the local rate (normally higher) than the prepaid rates and must be paid locally. Extensions to the rental period must be notified to the rental branch to ensure continuance or vehicle insurance.

8. Vehicles rented with a tank of fuel must be returned with the same fuel to avoid refuelling charges. When accepting to pre-purchase a tank of fuel renters must return the vehicle empty as no refund will be issued for pre-purchased tanks of fuel.
