Car rental in Larnaca, Cyprus: what to know
Airport car rental in Larnaca
Cyprus airports hand cars over at in-terminal desks, at nearby off-airport offices reached by shuttle, or through a meet-and-greet agent in arrivals. The voucher states which of the three applies to your booking.
For night landings, confirm the desk opening hours, whether the supplier tracks the flight number, any out-of-hours handover fee and how the car is returned when the office is closed.
Car rental conditions
Bring your passport and a valid driving licence. Licences issued in the EU and the UK are accepted directly; for other countries an International Driving Permit may be requested, so confirm the requirement with the supplier before pickup.
The minimum age is usually 21, and most suppliers ask for at least one to three years of driving experience. Premium, SUV and minivan classes often set a higher age threshold, and a young-driver surcharge may apply.
A deposit is standard and is normally blocked on the driver’s card. Some Cyprus suppliers work without a deposit, accept debit cards or take cash, but those terms are listed on the individual offer rather than applied island-wide.
Check the insurance scope, the excess amount and the exclusions such as tyres, glass, undercarriage and unsurfaced roads. After an accident call the emergency number 112, wait for the police where required and notify the rental company immediately.
Car brands and categories
The catalog covers the main rental categories:
- Economy
- Comfort
- SUV
- Minivan
- Premium
- Convertible
- Electric
- Hybrid
Cyprus fleets are built mostly around Toyota, Nissan, Hyundai, Kia, Suzuki, Ford, Opel, Volkswagen, Škoda, Mercedes-Benz and similar models, with right-hand-drive versions widely used.
Compare the total price together with the deposit, insurance excess, mileage policy, fuel rule, accepted payment methods and the return conditions.
Airport pickup details
Have the passport, driving licence, booking voucher and the deposit card of the main driver ready before you reach the counter, and photograph the bodywork, glass and tyres during the joint inspection.
On the way back allow time for refuelling near the airport, the return inspection and the walk from the drop-off bay to the terminal.
Rental without a credit card
Some Cyprus suppliers accept a debit card, and a few work with cash or an online prepayment instead of a credit-card hold, but this is an offer-level rule rather than an island-wide policy.
The card usually has to carry the main driver’s embossed or printed name, so check the accepted card types, the deposit amount and any surcharge before you book.
Car rental essentials in Cyprus
Practical points on traffic, documents, payment, insurance, roads and vehicle return.
- Security deposit: A refundable card hold is standard unless the tariff states otherwise.
- Accepted cards: Credit cards are the default; debit or cash depends on the individual supplier.
- Airport desks: Handover happens in the terminal, at a shuttle office or with an agent in arrivals.

- Vehicle inspection: Photograph the body, glass and tyres before you leave the parking bay.
- Out-of-hours handover: Night arrivals can carry a surcharge, so confirm the procedure in advance.
- Left-hand traffic: Cyprus drives on the left, so allow extra care at the first roundabouts and junctions.

- Passport: A valid passport or national ID is normally required at pickup.
- Insurance excess: Check the excess amount and exactly what a full-cover package removes.

- Minimum age: Usually 21 and over, with a higher threshold for premium and larger classes.

Useful information for renters
Parking and roads
Cyprus drives on the left and the steering wheel is on the right. Paid bays and one-way streets fill the centre, so aim for a marked car park rather than kerbside space. The A1–A6 motorways carry no tolls, so plan for fuel and city parking instead of road charges.
Car pickup
At the airport a car is usually handed over:- at a desk inside the arrivals hall;
- at an off-airport office reached by shuttle;
- by a meet-and-greet agent in arrivals;
- at an agreed address after landing.
The handover point and any out-of-hours fee are set by the supplier.
Payment and currency
Cyprus uses the euro (EUR).
The booking currency may differ, while the deposit, fuel, parking and any fines are normally settled in euro under the supplier’s terms.

FAQ
Where are the car rental desks located at Larnaca Airport?
All on-airport car rental desks are grouped on the left side of the Arrivals Hall, immediately after you exit baggage claim and customs. You walk out into the hall, turn left and you will see the rental counters for the main companies in one area.
How do I get from the rental desk to the car park?
After completing the paperwork and receiving your keys and rental agreement, you exit the terminal through the main doors and cross the service road using the pedestrian crossing. The dedicated rental car parking lot is directly opposite the terminal and clearly signed; the whole walk usually takes less than five minutes.
Are the rental desks open 24/7?
In-terminal rental desks at Larnaca Airport generally operate extended hours to cover scheduled flight arrivals, and some brands offer 24/7 service or late-night pickups. Opening hours can differ by company, so check the exact schedule in your booking confirmation, especially for night or early-morning arrivals.
How long does it usually take to pick up a car?
In normal conditions the full pickup process typically takes around 20–40 minutes. During peak season and busy arrival waves, queues at popular desks can extend this time, so it is wise to allow some buffer before planning your onward drive.
What documents do I need to collect a car?
You will usually need a valid passport or ID, your driving licence, a credit or suitable payment card for the deposit, and your rental voucher or confirmation. Some companies may also ask for an international driving permit, especially if your licence is not in Latin script.
Where do I return the rental car at Larnaca Airport?
Return usually takes place in the dedicated Rental Cars area on the airport premises, in the same overall parking zone opposite the terminal. When approaching the airport, follow the signs for “Car Rental Return” and your company’s logo.
Can I return the car after hours or at night?
Many rental companies at Larnaca Airport offer after-hours drop-off. In this case you park the car in the designated area, lock it and leave the keys in a secure drop-box, as instructed by the provider. Confirm in advance that your booking includes after-hours return and follow the fuel and damage reporting rules.
What should I do if my flight is delayed and the return time changes?
If your flight is significantly delayed or rescheduled, contact your rental company as soon as possible using the phone number in your contract or voucher. Many providers can adjust the drop-off time, but substantial changes may lead to extra charges, so always agree the new return time to avoid misunderstandings.
Are there long queues at rental desks at Larnaca Airport?
Queues vary by time of day and season. During busy holiday periods and weekend peaks, popular brands can have more waiting time. To speed up the process, have all documents ready and review your booking details in advance.
Is it easy to drive from the airport to Larnaca city or Ayia Napa?
Larnaca Airport is just a few kilometres from Larnaca city, with straightforward access via main roads. Driving to Ayia Napa or Protaras follows well-marked routes, with typical times under an hour. Remember that Cyprus has left-hand traffic and take some time to adapt if this is new for you.
Do I need a credit card to rent a car at Larnaca Airport?
Most airport rental companies prefer a credit card in the driver’s name to secure the deposit. Some local providers may accept certain debit cards or alternative arrangements, but conditions can be stricter, so check the payment and deposit rules carefully before booking.
How is the deposit handled when renting at the airport?
In most cases the rental company places a temporary hold on your card for the deposit amount, which covers excess, potential damage and fines. The exact sum depends on the car category and insurance package. After you return the car and the final check is completed, the hold is released or adjusted according to the contract terms.
