Zaventem Car Hire & Driving Guide

Essential answers for travellers renting cars and self-driving in and around Brussels

Can I drive with my home country's licence in Belgium, or do I need an International Driving Permit?

EU licences are valid directly. If you're from outside the EU, an International Driving Permit (IDP) is required alongside your original licence—without it, rental companies will refuse to hand over the vehicle. The IDP is valid for one year and can be obtained from your home country's automobile association before departure.

I'm 22. Will I face a young driver surcharge, and how much is it likely to cost?

Most Belgian rental companies apply a young driver surcharge for drivers under 25, typically adding €20–€35 per day on top of the base rate. At 22, you'll definitely pay this fee. Budget an extra €140–€245 per week. Always check the final quote before booking, as surcharges vary significantly between agencies.

How do I pay for motorway tolls in Belgium—should I rent an electronic tag?

Belgium's ring road around Brussels uses a closed toll system with electronic lanes (via-T). Rental companies offer via-T devices for €5–€10 per day, which is worthwhile if you plan to use the ring road frequently. Cash and credit cards are accepted at manual booths, but queues can be long. If you're only doing occasional motorway drives, pay-as-you-go at the booth is fine.

Do I need winter tyres or snow chains for driving in Zaventem during winter?

Winter tyres are not legally mandatory in Belgium, but from December to February, icy conditions are common and租车 companies strongly recommend them—failure to fit winter tyres when driving in snowy or icy conditions can void your insurance. Snow chains are rarely needed on Belgian roads. Budget €50–€80 per week for winter tyres if renting through the agency.

What type of fuel do Belgian hire cars use, and should I return the car full or empty?

Diesel is the most common fuel type for hire cars in Belgium, though petrol and hybrid/electric options are increasingly available. Nearly all rental agreements use a full-to-full policy—you collect with a full tank and must return it full to avoid refuelling charges at premium rates (often €1.80–€2.20 per litre, far above pump prices). Always photograph the fuel gauge on collection.
