Frequently asked questions

How do I get the best deals on an Amsterdam Budget car rental?

We try to get you the best rates, no matter when you reserve your car. However, getting your car ahead of your visit can help keep spending low. Be sure to go over the mileage policy and keeping it to one driver will reduce your expense.

Do I need to bring anything special when I get my car rental in Amsterdam?

You will need to present your driver's permit and a credit card in your name.

What's Amsterdam's minimum age to rent a car?

Budget's minimum age to rent a car in Amsterdam is 21. Make sure to check Budget's policies, as there may be additional fees if you are under 25 or for higher category cars in particular.

What kind of Budget rental car should I get for my trip to Amsterdam?

That depends on how many people you are traveling with and what activities you want to do in Amsterdam. Compact or economy vehicles are easier to park and great for short drives. If you are traveling with a bigger group, then a sedan or SUV will have more room for everyone's bags and offer a more comfortable ride on longer commutes. Those looking for a bit of extravagance on their Amsterdam trip can choose the premium category for a car like a Cadillac or Audi or similar.

Is insurance required when you rent a car in Netherlands?

In Netherlands you do need to have insurance before you rent from Budget. Many of the major credit cards (American Express, Visa, MasterCard and Discover) generally cover your car rental. But many of them have prohibitions, such as not covering large vehicles, like trucks or SUVs. Make sure to call and find out exactly what your credit card will cover and how much before you head to Amsterdam. Otherwise, as a U.S. citizen, you can add on Collision Damage Coverage through CarRentals.com at checkout.

Does Budget require a deposit at the time of booking my rental car?

Budget does require a deposit when you book your rental. Budget will block the deposit on your credit once you book your car for your trip. Please note that the deposit may vary greatly depending on the make and model of the vehicle.

Do I have to full up the tank before I take my car back to Budget?

We recommend a full tank policy. You should get into your car with full tank, and you should bring it back it with a full tank. If you want to keep your expenses lower, it is best to fill up your tank before you return the car to Budget. Stations near or around airports or car rental places tend to have higher prices.

Why should I get unlimited miles?

Amsterdam certainly has its charms, but you may want to hit the road again after you've checked off all the activities here.

Does Amsterdam Budget offer one-way car rentals?

Budget usually offers one-way rentals. You may find it more convenient to return your vehicle at a different location. Don't forget there is typically an additional charge when you opt for one-way.
