Good to know
Check each provider's age requirements before booking your rental in Sweden. Rules can vary, and extra charges or restrictions may apply if you're a younger driver. At the start of your search, uncheck the 'Driver aged between 25–70' filter and enter your age to explore your options.
Add a car seat to your Oskarshamn car rental booking if you're bringing the kids. Rules can change from one location to another, but using a child seat suited to their size, weight and age is always the safest approach.
Come prepared and keep pick-up quick and easy. You'll typically need your physical driver's licence (no digital copies) and a second photo ID. Bring a credit card with enough balance for the deposit too. If anything else is expected, it'll be listed in your booking.
Take a few moments to get used to your rental. Adjust your seat and mirrors, test the lights and blinkers, and get a feel for its handling before you drive away. And importantly, stick to the right side of the road in Sweden.
Stay within the local speed limits. Most of the time that's around 45kph in built-up areas and 110kph or so on highways, unless signs say otherwise.
In Sweden, the legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit is 0.02%. If you intend to drink, hand the keys to someone else or arrange a taxi or ride-share instead.
Try to travel outside high-traffic periods for a smoother trip. 8am is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.
The Swedish krona (SEK) is the currency you'll be using for day-to-day purchases and activities. Use cards where you can, but have some cash ready when electronic payments aren't possible.
