Where can I rent a car in Oslo city centre?
City offices, opening hours and what to know before driving out of Oslo.
Short answer
In central Oslo, Avis rents cars from Munkedamsveien 21 in Vika and Sixt from Sjøgata 4 at Aker Brygge, both near Nationaltheatret station. Visit Oslo also lists Europcar in the city centre and Budget at Aker Brygge and Tjuvholmen. Avis is open every day, and both Avis and Sixt offer 24-hour car return.
Why
- Avis Oslo sentrum is open 08:00–18:00 on weekdays, 09:00–15:00 on Saturdays and 12:00–18:00 on Sundays, with 24-hour drop-off.
- Sixt's city office is next to the Aimo Park Aker Brygge car park, and cars are collected and returned on level P2.
- At 2026 rates, Fjellinjen charges a petrol car NOK 38 per passage of the Oslo toll ring, or NOK 47 in rush hour, before any AutoPASS discount.
Details
Sixt's Oslo sentrum office is open 07:00–15:00 Monday to Wednesday, 09:00–17:00 on Thursday, 10:00–18:00 on Friday and 08:00–12:00 on Saturday. Visit Oslo lists Hertz, Rent-a-Wreck and Bislet Car Rental in the western part of the city. If you land at Oslo Airport, all rental companies there are in car park P10, level U2.
Tip
Collect the car on the day you leave Oslo: every passage through the toll ring is billed to you later, and both city offices take cars back around the clock.
