Can I drive in Galveston with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in the United States, you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required, be aware that you'll also have to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, your 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 must be at least 25 in many states in order 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 company you're renting from before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you leave the lot to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse off-road areas with your home. Please read the regulations before booking!
