If you don't possess a driver's license issued in the United States, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car.

Lastly, the credit card used to rent the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the company you're renting from before you book to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with your home vehicle. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
