Can someone else drive my rental car?
최종 업데이트 2026년 9월 16일
Yes, someone else can drive your Agtran rental car, but only if they are added as an additional driver on the rental agreement first. Only registered drivers are covered to drive. Letting an unregistered person drive can affect your protection if anything happens, so add them before they take the wheel.
Who can be an additional driver
An additional driver must meet the same requirements as the main driver. That means a valid driving licence and identification, an international driving permit if they are visiting from abroad, and the minimum age of 21. As long as they meet these, anyone travelling with you can share the driving, a partner, a family member, a friend, or a colleague.
How to add a driver
You can add an additional driver in two ways:
- When you book online, add the extra driver as part of your booking
- At pickup or delivery, tell our team and provide the additional driver's documents so we can register them on the agreement
Either way, the additional driver's documents are checked and recorded, the same as the main driver's. It only takes a few minutes, and it means everyone who drives is properly covered.
The cost
Adding an additional driver has a small extra daily charge. The exact amount depends on the vehicle and the rental period, and it is shown when you add the driver during booking. It is a per-day charge, so a longer rental costs a little more for the extra driver than a short one.
Why registration matters
This is the important part. Your rental comes with full insurance, and the Collision Damage Waiver that reduces your liability applies to registered drivers. If an unregistered person is driving and something happens, that protection may not apply, which could leave you responsible for the full cost of any damage. Registering every driver is quick, and it keeps everyone protected. It is not worth the risk of skipping it to save a small daily charge.
Quick summary
- Someone else can drive, but they must be added as an additional driver first
- They need the same documents and minimum age (21) as the main driver
- Add them when booking online, or at pickup with their documents
- There is a small extra daily charge
- Only registered drivers are covered by the insurance, so never let an unregistered person drive
If you are not sure whether to add a driver, it is safer to add them anyway when you book. You can find more about what your cover includes in our guide on what rental car insurance covers, and you can book your car online in a few minutes.
