There are several requirements that you should follow when it comes to car rentals in Gothenburg. The minimum age for a car rental in Gothenburg is 19, and you need to drive with a license held for more than a year. If your license uses a non-Roman alphabet (like Cyrillic), you also need to provide an International Driving Permit that you have acquired from your home country prior to your arrival. You also need to have an additional form of identification with you such as a passport or a credit/debit card. You are allowed to take your rental car into other countries with approval and written permission beforehand.
Just like the majority of Europe, traffic in Sweden is on the right side of the road – keep this in mind when you look for car rentals in Gothenburg. Seatbelts are compulsory for all passengers in all types of vehicles and your headlights must be always switched on, even in the daytime. The limit of blood alcohol level is 0.02% and fines are hefty, with even a chance to have your license revoked if you drive under the influence. The speed limits are 100km/h (62 mph) on highways, 70km/h (43 mph) on smaller roads and 50km/h (31 mph) in residential areas. It is best to check with Gothenburg motor vehicle authorities for recent law changes.

There are many types of parking spaces available for car rentals in Gothenburg. The nearer you park to the city centre, the more expensive and harder it is to find a spot.
