Bringing Your Own Vehicle
If you're bringing your own car, you'll need vehicle registration documents, unlimited third-
party liability insurance and a valid driving licence. A right-hand-drive vehicle brought from
the UK or Ireland should have deflectors fitted to the headlights to avoid dazzling oncoming
traffic. You must carry a reflective warning breakdown triangle.
Driving Licences
An international driving permit isn't necessary; your domestic licence will do.
Hire
To hire a car you have to be at least 20 (sometimes 25) years of age, with a recognised li-
cence and a credit card.
International rental chains Avis, Hertz and Europcar have desks at Stockholm Arlanda
and Göteborg Landvetter airports, and offices in most major cities. The lowest car-hire rates
are generally from larger petrol stations (like Statoil and OKQ8).
