Important information about Oaxaca car rentals

Can I drive into Guatemala or Beliza with a rental car from Oaxaca?

A few car rentals in Oaxaca typically allow cross-border driving to Guatemala and Belize. However, you'll need an affidavit for each nation you intend to visit to take a rental car across the Mexican borders, which the Oaxaca car rentals will come in handy to prepare for you. If you are planning to drive a rental car across the Mexican border to Belize, you will need to acquire an international permit, which is free. Moreover, you will be required to obtain additional insurance in Belize. Contrastingly, taking a rental car to Guatemala is more involved. To begin, you'll have to pay for the special permit that will enable you to cross the border. After which, you'll require copies of your identification documents. Unfortunately, most car rentals in Oaxaca will not allow you to travel into the U.S. since Mexican insurance is not valid in the U.S. In addition, it is tricky for a non-owner to purchase cover policies or cross the border with Mexican plates.

Can you rent a rental car in Oaxaca without credit card?

Many Oaxaca car rentals require a credit card as the main accepted payment option. However, you can still get your preferred ride, including electric car rental, passenger van rental, and economy car rental, without a credit in some of the car rental locations in Oaxaca. All you need is a debit card which should have the amount specified for the security deposit. Moreover, the debit cardholder should be the renter and the primary driver. However, renting a car without a credit card is generally more complex and time-consuming, and you will be required to present more requirements, such as utility bills and confirmation of your identification.

What driving laws should I keep an eye out for in Oaxaca?

At first, driving in Oaxaca might be intimidating. However, if you have previous experience driving on the right side of the road, you'll find driving in Oaxaca to be smooth and easy. You should always watch out for some of the rules, including ensuring all travelers in the vehicle have their seat belts buckled. Moreover, younger travelers under the age of seven, regardless of weight, and children weighing less than required must always be secured in a proper child seat, possibly rear or front-facing, or a booster seat for older kids. The blood alcohol content (BAC) limit is 0.08%, and the use of a cellphone while driving is prohibited. Nonetheless, driving cautiously is essential, not merely because other motorists are sometimes irresponsible, but also because the condition of the roads varies and features many speed bumps. Keep an eye out for potholes and take extra caution while driving your rental car if you're caught behind a slow-moving vehicle.

What documents does an international traveler need to rent a car in Oaxaca?

You don’t need a Mexican driver’s license to rent a car in Oaxaca. Typically, valid Canadian and U.S. driver's licenses can be used to rent a car in Oaxaca. However, car rentals in Oaxaca welcome several clients from all over the world, therefore, they will accept a valid driver's license from your home country. You should present a valid passport and credit card to make a security deposit on the vehicle. Nevertheless, if your license is not written in the Latin alphabet, you will need an International Driving Permit to rent a car in Oaxaca. However, it is important to note that you can't rent a car in Oaxaca with an International Driving Permit alone, you also need a valid passport. Most car rental agencies in Oaxaca require drivers to be at least 25 years, and it’s recommended to check the age limit for the car rental company before booking if you are younger.
