Can I drive in Darwin with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license issued in the United States, you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, note that you’ll also need to show your current valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the vehicle needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about rental cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 or older in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as the car rental website before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When renting a car in the United States, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car rental. Please read the regulations before booking!
