Good to know
Age requirements for rentals can vary by company (and even car type), so know the rules before you book. Some providers in Switzerland may rent to younger drivers for an additional fee. If you're outside the typical age range, simply uncheck 'Driver aged between 25–70' and then enter how old you are to explore your options.

Bring the right documents to make pick-up as quick as possible. You'll generally need your physical driver's licence (not a screenshot or digital version) and a second photo ID. Also keep a credit card handy to cover the required excess. If anything extra is required, you'll find it in your booking.

Make sure you stay within the local speed limits. Usually that's around 45kph in urban areas and 110kph or so on highways, unless signed otherwise.
A blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit of 0.05% applies in Switzerland. The only sure way to stay legal to drive is to skip the drinks.
Around 8am is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination. Try to avoid busy hours generally for a smoother drive.
The Swiss franc (CHF) is the currency you'll be using for general expenses and activities. Pay with a credit or debit card when it's possible, but have some cash handy when electronic payments aren't accepted.
