Accepted Answer

If you're a younger driver hoping to rent a vehicle in Dublin, it'd be wise to check the terms and conditions of the car rental companies you're interested in.

To avoid any unwanted surprises at the rental counter, make sure you know what to expect.

Question 12

Can I drive in Dublin with my current driver's license?

Accepted Answer

If you don't have a license from the U.S, you may be required to apply for 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 part of the requirements to drive in the U.S., be aware that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the car needs to match the name on your 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 to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as the car rental website before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse rough terrain with your rental car. Please read the regulations before you book!
