Good to know
Check each provider's age requirements before booking your rental in Brazil. Rules can vary, and added costs or restrictions may apply if you're a younger driver. At the start of your search, uncheck the 'Driver aged between 25–70' box and enter your age to explore your options.
Bringing the kids with you? Car seat regulations vary from one place to another, and the right setup may depend on their age, weight and height. Confirm whether you need to add one to your Belo Horizonte car hire reservation.
You'll need to hand over a few things when collecting your rental car: a valid driver's licence, another form of photo ID, and a credit card with enough funds to pay the security deposit. Debit cards usually aren't accepted. Your booking will show the full list of what's required.
Driving in Brazil may take some getting used to if it's your first time. Keep in mind traffic flows on the right side of the road.
Follow the local speed limits. Usually that's around 45kph in built-up areas and 110kph or so on highways, unless road signs indicate differently.
Avoid getting behind the wheel if your plans involve alcohol. Brazil takes a zero-tolerance approach to drinking and driving, and fines may apply.
Aim to travel outside high-traffic periods for a smoother trip. 6pm is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.
The Brazilian real (BRL) is the currency you'll be using for everyday purchases and activities. Pay with a card when you can, and keep some cash handy for places that don't accept electronic payment.
