Yes, parking is generally easy to find in most towns and villages, and it is often free. However, in larger towns like Tórshavn, you will encounter time-limited parking. These are signed with limit information. Use the parking disc provided to display your arrival time.

There are gas stations in most towns across the Islands, but in more remote areas they can be sparse.

We will require a credit card and a valid driver's license from your home country. However, if your license is not in English, you need to have an International Driving Permit (IDP)

The roads in the Faroe Islands are generally well-maintained, but they can be narrow, winding, and steep in places. Weather conditions can also change rapidly, leading to fog, rain, or strong winds, which can affect driving. Make sure to always check the weather conditions and forecast to be on the safe side.

The minimum age for renting a car is 21 years old and to have held a valid driver’s license for at least 1 year.

In case of an emergency, you can call the local emergency number 112. For car breakdowns call +298 358800.

Always drive on the right-hand side of the road, wear seat belts at all times, and adhere to speed limits, which are usually 50 km/h in towns and 80 km/h on rural roads. It's also important to note that headlights must be on at all times, even during daylight. In this video you will see more specific information about narrow tunnels, sheeps on the road and more.

There are no toll roads in the Faroe Islands, but you do need to pay for the sub-sea tunnels. 

Additionally, some routes involve ferry crossings, which you will need to pay for separately.
