Where can I find an Italy car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to check the age policy of the Italy rental providers you're considering. If you're under 25 years of age, be aware that some will charge extra costs. It's better to know this before arriving at the desk so you can budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own rules for younger drivers, so it's smart to do your research.
Can I drive in Italy with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in the United States, you may be required 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, note that you'll also need to show your current driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the car must also match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about rental cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in many states to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as the car rental website before you go to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When renting a car in the U.S, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your home vehicle.
