Does Europcar require an IDP in Grenada?
Europcar in Grenada: the policy in plain terms
Requires an IDP for non-EU and non-Latin-alphabet licences across its European network. Europe's leading mobility brand.
Grenada drives on the left and requires visitors to buy a local temporary permit, arranged through the rental company or police.
In Grenada specifically, grenada legally requires foreign drivers to carry an International Driving Permit with their national licence, so Europcar will ask for it at the counter. A local temporary permit is required; rental desks help arrange it.
Europcar runs a europe / global network; at its Grenada desks, foreign renters are asked for the Local rules-format International Driving Permit alongside the original licence. Grenada drives on the left, uses the XCD, 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 Europcar counter in Grenada
