Can I rent a car at Rijeka Airport without a credit card?
A credit card in the primary driver’s name is essential to block the security deposit. Suppliers often deny or cancel bookings when a valid credit card is not provided at pickup. A higher deposit amount may be held by select suppliers who accept debit cards.
⚠️ Prepaid and virtual cards are rarely accepted at rental counters.

Can I hire a car at Rijeka Airport with no deposit?
Standard rentals usually require a security deposit of roughly €200–€2,000. The exact amount varies depending on the vehicle and insurance coverage and is only temporarily held by the supplier at pickup. Travellers can purchase an optional full-protection policy to reduce or eliminate the excess deductible. As long as the car is returned in the same condition as it was picked up and with no traffic fines, the deposit is fully refunded after the booking period.

What is the fuel policy for rental cars at Rijeka Airport?
A full-to-full policy is common among most suppliers. As per that, you are given a car with a full tank of fuel, which you must return full. A same-to-same fuel policy may be in use at times, which requires travellers to return the hired car with the same amount of fuel as at pickup. Refuelling charges are applied at higher rates if the car is not returned as per the agreed-upon fuel policy.
✅ Full-to-full is usually the most transparent and cost-effective fuel policy.
