Does Enterprise require an IDP in Norway?
Enterprise in Norway: the policy in plain terms
Requires an IDP alongside your home licence where local law mandates it (much of Europe, Asia and South America). The world's largest car-rental brand by fleet size.
Norway drives on the right with mandatory daytime headlights and one of Europe's strictest alcohol limits; non-EU visitors should carry an IDP.
In Norway specifically, norway legally requires foreign drivers to carry an International Driving Permit with their national licence, so Enterprise will ask for it at the counter. Oslo desks request an IDP for non-EU licences; many tolls are automatic.
Enterprise runs a global network; at its Norway desks, foreign renters are asked for the Both-format International Driving Permit alongside the original licence. Norway drives on the right, uses the NOK, and sets a minimum driving age of 18, so an IDP is the document that removes any doubt at the counter.
What to bring to the Enterprise counter in Norway
- Your original national driving licence (the IDP never replaces it).
- Your International Driving Permit in the Both format.
- Your passport and a payment card in the main driver's name.
- Local payment for the NOK deposit; Norway drives on the right with a young-driver surcharge under 25.
