Can I drive in Boston with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the U.S, you may be required to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S., know that you'll also have to show your 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. Other things you should know about renting a car 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 places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking state and local regulations, and with the car rental company before you travel to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you slide 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 onto ferries or traverse rough terrain with your car rental. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
