If you don’t possess a driver’s license issued in the U.S, you may be required to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. 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 form of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the vehicle must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about rental cars 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 areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the rental car company before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your car rental.
