We also clearly highlight car and van rental options in Paris that have free cancellation

If you’ve booked a car rental with free cancellation, you can usually cancel or change your booking without paying a fee. The deadline depends on the rental company, but it’s typically around 48 hours before pickup. If you cancel after that, you may be charged. If your booking doesn’t include free cancellation, you’ll need to check the rental company’s cancellation policy. Depending on when you cancel, you might have to pay a fee or you won't get a refund.
Yes. Most car rental companies in Paris offer same-day car rentals. If you're looking for a last-minute rental car in Paris, search for today's date on Skyscanner to compare what's available.
The best time to book a rental car in Paris is usually as early as you can. Booking ahead often means cheaper prices and more cars to choose from. You can sometimes find a good last-minute deal, but it's never guaranteed, and last-minute availability is often more limited.
It depends on the car rental company. Some companies in Paris will let you drive your rental car abroad, often for an extra fee, while others don't allow it. If you're planning to cross a border, check with the car rental company before you travel. Driving your rental car abroad without permission could invalidate your insurance or break the terms of your rental agreement.
It depends on the rental company. Some accept debit cards, others require a credit card. Either way, you’ll need enough money on your card to cover a security deposit, which you’ll get back when you return the car.

Yes – you can easily find car rental companies that allow you to pick up your car in one place, and then drop it off in another. Just select "Return car to a different location" when you search with us.

Public transportation can only get you so far, and could be tricky to navigate with children or luggage. With your own set of wheels, you can go wherever you want, whenever you want, and for as long as you want. You'll also be able to discover more outside of Paris.

Yes, you can rent a car in Paris from the age of 21. You'll need a valid driver's license and the usual ID. If you're under 25, you might need to pay a young driver fee, and some car rental companies only let you book certain vehicle types. When you search on Skyscanner, just enter your age and we'll show you the options available.

Of course. Most major car rental companies like Goldcar, Keddy By Europcar and Flex To Go offer baby and child seats as an add-on when you book.

You don’t have to get it, but it’s worth thinking about. In Paris, the deductible or "excess" (what you pay if the car gets damaged or stolen) ranges from 1.500 € to 3.500 €, depending on who you book with. The cost of excess insurance also varies by rental car company. You can buy excess insurance separately, which is usually cheaper than buying it through the rental car company.
