Accepted Answer

If you don't possess a driver's license from the U.S, 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 required, be aware that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver's 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 areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before your trip to understand all the terms and conditions.
Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off the lot to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with your home. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
