In the picturesque city of Copenhagen, car rentals are a popular option for visitors desiring the freedom to explore the charming capital and its surroundings at their own pace. The average cost of renting a car in Copenhagen varies based on the season, type of vehicle, and rental duration. Typically, travelers can expect to pay anywhere from DKK 350 to DKK 750 per day for a standard vehicle.
Finding an economical option might lead you to compact cars, which are not only budget-friendly but also ideal for navigating the city's busy streets. For more space and comfort, especially if you're travelling with family or in a group, SUVs or minivans are also available but at a higher price point. Additionally, booking in advance, especially during peak tourist season, can often secure better rates and ensure availability. Keep an eye out for hidden fees and insurance costs that can add up. Lastly, consider checking car rental prices outside the airport area, as local rental offices may offer competitive rates.
At the rental company office, you may be required to provide an international driving licence.
When securing a rental in Copenhagen, you can select from various car insurance options. For peace of mind during your travels around Denmark's capital, cars-scanner suggests opting for a comprehensive insurance package that covers nearly all forms of damage. This can be arranged through our website or directly at the rental agency's desk in Copenhagen.
Each vehicle comes with its specific insurance details, which are outlined in the insurance agreement. It is important to review this document carefully before you set out on Copenhagen's streets.
If you plan to drive from Copenhagen to explore multiple countries, it's essential to check the Border Crossing information in advance. This will inform you about which neighboring country borders your rental car can legally cross from Denmark.
Clients taking advantage of car rentals in Copenhagen can benefit from current promotions and special deals. We frequently collaborate with numerous rental providers in the city to bring you the best possible terms. Pre-booking your car well in advance - between 2-4 months for regular seasons and 3-6 months before peak seasons - can yield discounts of up to 80%. Sometimes, you may even find rentals available for an exceptional rate of just EUR 1 per day.
Locking in your booking secures the rate advertised at the booking date. Should your travel plans to Copenhagen fall through, you have the flexibility to cancel your booking free of charge up to 24 hours before your rental begins.
The cancellation form is accessible on our website. Under standard conditions, the following cancellation policies apply to Copenhagen rentals: - Free cancellation up to 24 hours before the rental start time- A fee of 50 euros for cancellations made less than 24 hours before- The full rental price is charged for cancellations at or after the rental start time.Be aware that specific special offers might modify these cancellation policies; please review all terms and conditions meticulously to effectively organize your Copenhagen itinerary.
To explore the feasibility and cost of returning your Copenhagen rental car in a different city, opt for the "return to another place" feature during your search. The search results will show only those rental providers that accommodate returns to alternate locations. The prices shown on our site already include any one-way fees.
If your driving licence is issued in the EU/EEA, it is accepted throughout Denmark without an international permit. For licences in non-Latin scripts (e.g. Arabic, Chinese, Japanese), an International Driving Permit (IDP) is required alongside your original licence. It's always a good idea to carry an IDP as a backup.
Car rental prices in Copenhagen are generally lowest during the off-season (November–March for European destinations). Booking 4–8 weeks in advance can also secure significantly lower rates. Avoid major holidays and local events when demand peaks. Comparing prices on Cars Scanner helps find the best deals year-round.
This depends on the fuel policy you selected:
Always check your rental agreement. Returning a “full-to-full“ car without refuelling results in a costly per-litre surcharge.
The excess (or deductible) is the maximum amount you'd pay out of pocket if the car is damaged or stolen. In Denmark, this typically ranges from €500 to €2,000 depending on the vehicle class. You can reduce or eliminate the excess by purchasing additional coverage such as Super CDW or booking full-coverage insurance through Cars Scanner.
If you receive a traffic fine while driving in Denmark, the rental company will typically forward it to you along with an administration fee (€20–50). Pay the fine promptly to avoid escalation. If you disagree, you can appeal through the issuing authority. Always photograph any unclear signage as evidence. Keep your rental agreement handy for reference.
Many rentals in Copenhagen come with unlimited mileage, especially for weekly bookings. However, some economy deals may include a daily cap (e.g. 200–300 km/day) with extra charges per kilometre beyond the limit. Always check the mileage policy in your booking confirmation — unlimited mileage offers the best value for longer trips.
Key rules when driving in Denmark:
Familiarise yourself with local signage and speed limits before setting off.
