Tips for renting a car in Punta Cana
Browse helpful tips for renting a car in Punta Cana including age restrictions, car type suggestions and more. Tips were last updated on June 12, 2025.
- Driving a rental car is a fantastic way to see Punta Cana, the beach town on the eastern tip of the Dominican Republic. In your rental car, you can explore the city and the surrounding areas to go zip lining, play golf, or have live dolphin encounters. You can drive to lush beaches along the Coconut Coast or to quaint beach towns all along the northeastern coast of the island. You can visit the Parque National Cotubanama to the south or the city of Santo Domingo to the west. In a Punta Cana car rental, you can explore this corner of the Dominican Republic according to your own schedule and agenda, without the limitations of public transportation.
- There are some things about driving in Punta Cana and throughout the Dominican Republic you should be aware of. Speeds are posted in kilometers, which means the posted number is higher than what it would be in miles per hour. Trucks have right-of-way. Many stop signs are replaced with deep indentations in the road. Drive over these slowly and cautiously to avoid damaging your rental car. Also, if you go off the main, paved, well-maintained roads, also drive slowly and with caution to avoid car damage. When you are driving through cities, towns, and villages, be ever vigilant for pedestrians, carts, and animals in the road.
- Situated in the heart of Punta Cana, the Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) makes an ideal place for securing a Punta Cana rental car. In either terminal at PUJ, you can find the car rental agencies outside arrivals, beyond the open-air corridor. As you walk through the open-air corridor past the parking lot, you will see the sign pointing you to the rental car counters for agencies including Avis, Hertz, Europcar, Budget, and Dollar. You will collect your vehicle from and return it to the parking lot just beyond the rental car counters.

Car rental FAQs
Find answers to frequently asked questions about car rentals in Punta Cana, including policies, requirements, and more. FAQs were last updated on June 12, 2025.
Can I drive my Punta Cana rental car into Haiti?
Since the Dominican Republic is right next to the country of Haiti on the island of Hispaniola, it might be tempting to drive your Punta Cana car rental across the border into Haiti. However, you should avoid doing this. Most car rental companies will not allow their vehicles to cross into Haiti, and if you do it anyway, it will nullify your rental contract and therefore any insurance coverage you might have on the car. If you want to cross into Haiti, drive your rental car close to the border, and take a bus or an excursion tour over the border—and don't forget your passport.
What are the requirements for an American renting a car in Punta Cana?
In the Dominican Republic, you need to be at least 21 years old to rent a car. You need to have a valid US driver's license with your picture on it and a major credit card in your name that has enough money on it to cover the deposit. Some agencies will require that you've had your license for at least 90 days, and others will require you to have had it for as long as 2 years. Also, some agencies will charge you a daily Young Renter fee if you are under 25. Some agencies will accept a debit card, others will not. Compare agencies carefully before making your reservation from home before you travel.
Should I buy the car rental agency’s insurance in Punta Cana?
It might be a good idea. In the Dominican Republic, if you are in an accident, and you are uninsured, you can be jailed while the police investigate. It is very possible that your own insurance or your credit card insurance does not cover cars rented in the Dominican Republic. Therefore, it might be a good idea indeed to opt for the insurance offered by the car rental agency in Punta Cana. Make sure to get collision as well as Casa del Conductore, which will prevent you from going to jail in case of an accident. This is usually offered along with collision insurance, but make sure that it is.
