It's useful to know this before arriving at the desk so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own policies for younger drivers, so do your research.
Can I drive in Birmingham with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in the U.S, 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, note that you'll also need to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about rental cars 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 areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as the car rental website before you go to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with your home vehicle. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
