Be aware that home companies will charge an additional fee if you're a young driver, which helps cover the higher damage or accident risk involved. Also, young drivers are generally restricted from renting luxury cars or larger vehicles. Read through the terms and conditions before booking to avoid any hassles during pickup.
What do you need to rent a car in Houston?
Be prepared to present a valid driver's license and a credit card in your name at the home counter. Prior to the pickup date, check with your selected company whether anything else is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of auto insurance.

Where can I find a Houston car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Houston companies will rent to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so be prepared to do some research. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some outlets will pass on a surcharge to customers between 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
Can I drive in Houston with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the U.S, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. 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 forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card you 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 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 you travel to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you usually can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or go off-roading with your car rental. Please read the regulations before you book!
