When you hire a car in Lapland, it’s common that you will need to provide a number of appropriate documents in order to finalise your car rental booking. The documentation usually includes suitable and legitimate identification like a passport. In addition, a passenger must always show their full and valid driving licence. When you drive your hired vehicle around Finland, make sure to keep your motor insurance certification and your paperwork for the car rental on hand.
Petrol stations in Lapland are very limited and those driving rental cars should make sure to fill up their vehicle whenever they see an appropriate location do so. With most petrol stations located in destinations such as Kemi and Rovaniemi, drivers should make sure to be efficient in their travel and plan accordingly. Car rentals will sometimes fill your hired vehicle with a full tank of gas before you leave. This will usually have to be matched on the return of your car hire. Otherwise, those who don’t will face themselves with a fee for the difference in cost.
To ensure the safest travel, Lapland speed limit requirements tend to be lower in the winter than in the summer months. This is to ensure that all drivers have an appropriate stopping distance and aren’t at risk of skidding. Although it might seem scary at first, it’s perfectly safe with increasingly good road conditions and a good network of roads. In summer, expect a speed of 120 kph (75 mph) on highways or motorways and a limit of 100 kph (62 mph) in the winter. The limit tends to vary from 50 kph (31 mph) in built-up areas during the winter to a faster speed limit of 80 kph (50 mph) in summer.
