Lastly, your credit card used to rent the vehicle needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the company you're renting from before your trip to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your rental car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
