Car rental at Igoumenitsa port: how pickup works

Driving in Igoumenitsa: rules, tolls, fuel
- Driving licence: EU/EEA licences are valid as they are. Since November 2021 licences from the UK, USA, Canada, Australia and Gibraltar are accepted without an International Driving Permit; most other non-EU licences need an IDP alongside the national licence.
- What to bring: licence, passport or ID and a credit card in the main driver’s name. Minimum age is usually 21.
- Egnatia Odos tolls: the motorway east to Ioannina and Thessaloniki is tolled by distance; pay by card or cash at the booths. Tolls and fines are paid by the renter.
- Fuel & charging: petrol cars go full-to-full. For electric cars, IonVolt explains where to charge across Epirus.
- Rules of the road: drive on the right, seatbelts for everyone, zero tolerance for phones at the wheel; coastal roads to Sivota and Parga are winding — allow time.
- Albania: taking a rental car across the border needs the company’s written permission and insurance papers — ask before you book.
- Corfu by ferry: possible with both companies if you say so at booking.
