Higher age limits apply for luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in El Cajon?

Where can I find an El Cajon car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look up the age policy of the El Cajon rental providers you're considering. If you're under the age of 25, some will charge additional costs. It's useful to know about this in advance so you can have the funds ready. Every rental car company has its own policies for younger drivers, so be sure to do your research.
Can I drive in El Cajon with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in the U.S, you may be required to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S., 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 you used to rent the car must 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 must be at least 25 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 with the rental car company before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • 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, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with a rental car. Please read the details before booking!
