How old do you have to be to rent a car in Dayton?
Drivers 21 and above can go road-tripping around Dayton in a rental car. If you're a young driver, a daily surcharge applies. You'll usually have fewer car categories to choose from, such as compact and mid-size, and may also be required to take out inclusive insurance. Be sure to enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to find out if any restrictions apply to you.
What do you need to rent a car in Dayton?
While requirements may differ between rental car outlets in Dayton, generally the essentials are a current driver's licence and a credit card in your name. You don't need to take out the company's auto insurance. However, proof of your own coverage may be required.

Where can I find a Dayton car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to check the age policy of the Dayton rental suppliers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years old, be aware that some will charge extra fees. It's useful to know about this before arriving at the desk so you can plan your budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so do your research.
Can I drive in Dayton with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license issued in the U.S, then you might need to apply for 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 current driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the car must also 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 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car rental. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
