Question

Hi, I just booked a car tin Aachen through your website. I just wanted to make sure I'm able to get this car and drive in Germany with a French driving license.

Answer

You are able to drive in Germany with a French license.
FYI:- Only if your driver's licence is not in the Roman alphabet (i.e. if it is in Arabic, Greek, Cyrillic or Chinese) you will be required to present an International Driving Permit along with your domestic licence.
