Car and van rental in Poland

Can a foreigner rent a car in Poland?

Yes! You can drive a rental car in Poland, if you have a valid driver's license and a passport. U.S. citizens need to have an International Driving Permit (IDP). If you have any questions about necessary documents, please contact us!

Is renting a car a good idea in Poland?

Yes, renting a car in Poland is a good idea, especially if you plan to explore regions outside major cities like the countryside, mountains, or smaller towns. It gives you the freedom to travel at your own pace, especially if you're visiting national parks or rural areas where public transport can be limited.

Is it easy to drive in Poland?

Driving in Poland is relatively easy, with well-maintained roads and clear signage, but be cautious in rural areas where roads may be narrower or less maintained. Major highways and cities have good infrastructure, though traffic can be heavy in cities like Warsaw during peak hours.

How is the parking in Poland?

Parking in Poland varies by location. In larger cities like Warsaw and Kraków, finding parking can be difficult and often requires payment in designated zones or garages. In smaller towns and rural areas, parking is generally easier and often free.

Are there tolls in Poland?

Yes, Poland has toll roads (autostrady) on major highways. Tolls can be paid in cash, by credit/debit card, or via an electronic toll collection system. Toll booths are clearly marked, and payments are made upon exiting the toll road.

Once you have arrived in Poland and picked up your rental car from the designated office, we wish you a safe and enjoyable journey!

In Poland, driving is on the right-hand side. A valid driving license from your home country is required, and depending on your country of origin, you may also need an International Driving Permit (IDP).

The speed limits in Poland are generally 50 km/h in urban areas, 90 km/h on secondary roads, and 140 km/h on highways, subject to change based on road conditions and signage.

From November 1 to March 31, winter tires are strongly recommended, especially in mountainous areas. By law, vehicles in Poland must carry a reflective safety vest and a warning triangle. These should be used in case of breakdowns or accidents. But don't worry – we take care of those if you choose our rental car!

The legal blood alcohol limit is 0.02%, and penalties for driving under the influence are strict, including fines, license suspension, or even imprisonment.

Drivers must stop for pedestrians at marked crosswalks, as pedestrians always have the right of way.

In urban areas, pay attention to parking zones marked by different colors: blue zones indicate paid parking, while yellow zones are reserved for specific uses (such as deliveries or disabled parking).

While fuel stations are readily available in cities and along highways, they may be less frequent in more remote or rural areas. It is advisable to fill up your tank when traveling to less-populated regions.

Poland has a network of toll roads (autostrady) that connect major cities and regions. Tolls can be paid in cash, by credit card, or through an electronic toll collection system.
