Add an additional driver to your rental contract
Adding an additional driver to your rental agreement with Sixt is very simple.
All you have to do is provide the name and driver’s license number of the person you want to add in the reservation. If you can’t present the driver’s license when you pick up the vehicle, an additional driver can be added during the rental at any Sixt station as well.
However, there are a few things that you should keep in mind. The additional driver must meet the identical criteria as the main driver:
- The additional driver must have a valid driver’s license and fulfill the minimum age.
- In addition, the minimum duration of the driving license must be given, as well as the permission to drive a rental car in the respective country.
Is it worth adding an additional driver to your rental contract? That depends solely on your individual needs. If you are sure that an additional driver meets all the requirements and is allowed to drive in the respective country, it can be a great way to reduce stress on a vacation or business trip. However, be aware of the additional costs when planning your budget for the trip!
These costs arise for an additional driver with Sixt
If you want to add an additional driver to your rental, you should know that there are additional costs. Unfortunately, there are no offers that already have a free second driver included. At Sixt, adding another person to the rental agreement costs an additional $10 or more per day. Of course, more than one additional driver can be booked. Around eight additional drivers can be entered per rental. The additional fee will be added to the regular rental price, and of course the additional persons will benefit from all inclusive services just as you do. So before you add another driver to your booking, be sure to calculate the additional costs!
Tip
The additional driver does not necessarily have to be booked online. An additional driver can also be booked at short notice on site at the rental car counter. However, you should never let a person drive with the Sixt rental car who is not registered in the rental contract. In the event of an accident or damage to the rental vehicle, there is no insurance coverage.
