Drivers need to be at least 21. But there are a few age-related restrictions you should bear in mind before you lock in your Essex wheels. If you’re a young motorist, most home providers will charge an additional daily fee and limit the types of vehicles you’re able to rent. The surcharge amount, and which ages it applies to, differs between outlets. Be sure to compare the rules.
What do you need to rent a car in Essex?
Any home company you select will ask for these two things — a current driver’s license and a credit card in your name.

Where can I find an Essex car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the car rental companies that are found in Essex. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you’ve found an outlet that does cater to drivers under the age of 25 keep in mind that additional fees may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before booking your holiday home.
Can I drive in Essex with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license issued in the U.S, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required, note that you’ll also need to show your current valid driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the car must match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 or older in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you book to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car rental. Please read the details before you book!
