Top tips for renting a car in Haiti
- Road conditions in Haiti can be challenging thanks to weather conditions, steep mountain passes, and a relaxed driving culture, but the lack of regular public transportation means that those wishing to explore the island will find it greatly beneficial to rent a car in Haiti. Available from the airport and major locations like the capital city, Port au Prince, car rental is easy to arrange and allows for maximum flexibility for trying to reach rural or cross-country destinations like Jacmel, Les Cayes, or Port-de-Paix.
- While it depends on exactly where you plan to drive in Haiti, a manual transmission vehicle will probably serve you best: many popular cross-country routes, such as Port au Prince to Jacmel, include very steep and winding roads over mountain passes, where the ability to shift gears will be an advantage.
- One of the most important tips for those who want to rent a car in Haiti is to not travel by road at night whenever possible. Especially if you are travelling on less-frequented rural roads or through edge-of-city areas, try to drive in daylight hours to minimize risks.
- Most rental companies like Budget and Dollar do not allow customers to drive into the neighboring Dominican Republic. If you do intend to take your rental car into the Dominican Republic, it is important to first check with your rental agency, as additional paperwork and international fees may apply.

Driving in Haiti is relatively straightforward, though it is important to be prepared for heavy and often chaotic traffic in urban areas like Port au Prince. Traffic in the city can be very congested, with a journey across town taking anywhere from 30m to 90m, depending on the time of day. Rural roads are generally quieter but may suffer from other problems like potholes, animals on the road, or landslides during the rainy season.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Haiti?
Depending on the agency from which you choose to rent a car in Haiti, drivers will need to be at least 21 years of age. Sixt, for example, accepts 21-year-old drivers, while the minimum age at Avis is 25. An English-language driving license is required for any car rental; if your domestic driver’s license is not originally in English, you will need to provide an official translation or an International Driver’s Permit (IDP).
How are gas prices in Haiti?
After 2018 saw public rioting over gas prices, the cost of fuel in Haiti has remained relatively stable. You can expect to pay around 55 HTG (0.60 USD) for a liter of gasoline. Fueling stations operate irregular hours and may occasionally be out of stock, meaning that any rental car driver should take the opportunity to fill up wherever possible; this applies particularly when driving in rural areas or late in the day.
What are the speed limits in Haiti?
While an official speed limit applies in Haiti, it is important to note that it is rarely enforced and is consequently ignored by the vast majority of local drivers. Officially, drivers should stick to a maximum limit of 50 km/h (31 mph) in urban or built-up areas, while in rural areas there is no maximum speed limit. Due to often difficult road conditions, it is advised for drivers to stick to a relatively low speed for safety.
