How old do you have to be to rent a car in Kansas City?
The minimum age to rent a car in Kansas City is 21. A surcharge for young drivers generally applies, so check before you book and factor in possible additional costs. There may also be restrictions on the sorts of vehicles available to young drivers. For example, some companies will only rent out economy, compact and medium-sized cars to less-experienced motorists. Requirements may vary between companies, so read the fine print carefully.
What do you need to rent a car in Kansas City?
You’ll need 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 home company whether other documentation is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of insurance.

Where can I find a Kansas City car rental if I am younger than 25?
Renting a car if you are under 25 years old in Kansas City often depends on the home supplier you choose. Some businesses have a surcharge for young customers aged between 21 and 24 years, yet others may not apply any additional costs for this age bracket. It’d be wise to go through the terms and conditions of your prospective home company to avoid unnecessary costs at the home desk.
Can I drive in Kansas City with my current driver's license?
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. 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 valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. 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!
