Rental suppliers impose what is known as a young driver surcharge, which is an additional fee to the cost of the rental car. Restrictions generally apply to the types of cars available to young people too. Age limits may differ between outlets, so check before booking.

Where can I find a Charlotte car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental companies, so be prepared to do a bit of research. Found a Charlotte supplier that does rent to drivers under 25? Terrific news! Just take note that extra fees often apply to drivers between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're considering will have all the information you need.
Can I drive in Charlotte with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in the U.S, you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car in the U.S. 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 used to rent the car must match the name on your 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 most states to be able 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 company you're renting from before you go to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you usually can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your rental car. Please read the regulations before booking!
