You’ll generally be restricted to a few car categories, such as economy and mid-size, and may also have to purchase comprehensive insurance. Always enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to learn if any restrictions or extra fees apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Dublin?
Before you can take the wheel in Dublin, you’ll need a driver’s license and a credit card that matches the name on your license. If you don’t take out the company’s insurance plan, you may also have to show proof of alternative coverage. Requirements can vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you choose a home provider.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Dublin?
Yes, so you won’t need to rebook a rental car in the middle of your holiday. Head over to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your travel dates and reserve a set of wheels that’s all yours for the duration of your getaway.
Where can I find a Dublin car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Dublin providers will rent to drivers under 25 and others won’t. Policies differ between suppliers, so you’ll need to do your homework. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some places will apply a surcharge to young customers between 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
Can I drive in Dublin with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license issued in the U.S, then you may need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. 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 forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to confirm your home. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states to rent a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the company you’re renting from before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • 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 U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse rough terrain with your rental car. Please read the regulations before booking!
