What do you need to rent a car in Occidental?

Some Occidental providers will rent to drivers under 25 years old, and others won’t. Age policies differ between suppliers, so be prepared to do your homework. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some places will apply a surcharge to young customers between 21 and 24. Always look through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
Can I drive in Occidental with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license issued in the U.S, then you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required, be aware that you’ll also have to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the car must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to confirm your home. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as the car rental website before you book to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your home. Please read the details before booking!
