It’s not enough to simply rent a fully equipped vehicle. If your transport is subject to tachograph requirements, the driver must have a valid driver card and company card and must be properly trained when picking up the vehicle. It is also important to correctly record trips, breaks, rest periods, and other work.

No. The customer must obtain these cards independently through the relevant authorities. Therefore, when picking up the vehicle, you must have all the necessary cards and documents ready in advance.

Before crossing the border, you need to check what fees are required for commercial vehicles in that country and enter them as a requirement in the booking notes.

If necessary, you can order 24/7 EU-wide Raodside Assistance with your booking.

PLEASE NOTE: When entering Hungary with a van, you must purchase a D2 category vignette, which applies to all commercial vehicles.

Dimensions of all our vehicles can be found in the Fleet section.

You will need a tachograph if you rent a commercial vehicle or a vehicle with a trailer and use it for international freight transport where the vehicle or vehicle combination exceeds 2.5 tons and the transport is carried out commercially. The decisive factors are not only the type of vehicle but also the purpose of the trip, whether borders are crossed, and the total maximum permissible weight of the entire combination. For these purposes, AVIS will offer a separate category of vehicles equipped in accordance with current European legislation. However, if you use the vehicle only for domestic trips within Slovakia, this requirement does not apply to vans weighing up to 3.5 tons.

• Valid documents:
  • ID card
  • driving licence
  • a debit/credit card valid for at least 6 months after the end of the rental period

For more information, please visit the Assistance section .

AVIS provides the client with a vehicle. However, the client is responsible for determining whether their specific transport falls under the tachograph regime, for the driver’s readiness, for the driver card, for the company card, for the proper use of the tachograph, and for compliance with driving, break, and rest rules. When renting a vehicle, it is therefore important to consider not only the vehicle itself, but also the company’s internal processes and the driver’s readiness.

If the rented vehicle is inoperable or otherwise inoperable, please contact Allianz assistance at +421 2 50 122 222 .

For any damage to the vehicle, you must complete the accident report included in each vehicle and notify the lessor within 24 hours.

(Also valid if you have paid the deposit online) c) Vehicle inspection: our vehicles are thoroughly inspected before each rental and any existing damages are recorded in the handover report.
