How old do you have to be to rent a car in Irvine?
Irvine rules state drivers must be 21 and above to be able to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra charge and tighter home conditions. Most providers impose a daily young renter fee in addition to the usual car rental rate. This covers the higher risk of accident or damage. While many car categories (like mid-size and compact) are available to young motorists, restrictions generally apply to specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Irvine?
Renting a car in Irvine is easy as pie. Normally, all you’ll need is your driver’s license and a credit card in your name. After settling on your perfect set of wheels, read the terms and conditions to make sure there are no extra requirements before pickup.

Yes, and you’ll find your ideal ride on our long-term car rental deals page. Simply enter your trip dates and we’ll show you fantastic options from a range of trustworthy suppliers.
Where can I find an Irvine car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the car rental companies that operate in Irvine. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you’ve found a place that does cater to drivers under 25 bear in mind that additional costs may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before picking up your vehicle.
Can I drive in Irvine with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license from the U.S, then you might need to apply for 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 form of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the vehicle must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about renting a car 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. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the company you’re renting from before you go to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with your rental car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
