Rules may differ between outlets, so read the fine print.

The ability to rent a car under the age of 25 in Gold Coast often depends on the holiday home provider you select. Some places apply a surcharge for young drivers aged between 21 and 24 years, however others may not have any extra costs for this age range. It'd be wise to go through the terms and conditions of your chosen car rental dealer to escape excessive charges when picking up your keys.
Can I drive in Gold Coast with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license from the United States, you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required, know that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Additional requirements for car rentals 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 places the minimum age is 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: Read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with a rental car. Please read the regulations before you book!
