How old do you have to be to rent a car in Encinitas?

Find out what ages the young renter fee applies to, and the associated cost, before booking. Outlets also restrict the categories of cars available to young drivers. Higher age limits apply for large vehicles like premium SUVs and luxury models.
What do you need to rent a car in Encinitas?
Be prepared to present your driver's license and a credit card in your name at the home counter. Before pickup, check with your home supplier whether anything else is needed. For example, you may also need to show proof of insurance.

Where can I find an Encinitas car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between holiday home suppliers, so you'll have to do some research. Found an Encinitas outlet that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? Terrific news! Just bear in mind that an extra charge often applies to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each holiday home car you're considering will have all the information you need.
Can I drive in Encinitas with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license issued in the U.S, then you may need to get 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 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. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the car rental website before you go to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you leave the lot 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, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your home vehicle. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
