If you don't have a driver's license issued in the U.S, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. 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 forms of identification.

  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you drive off the lot 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 traverse rough terrain with your home vehicle.
