Where can I find a Leicester car rental if I am younger than 25?
The ability to rent a car if you're under 25 years in Leicester often depends on the rental supplier you select. Some outlets apply a surcharge for young drivers between 21 and 24 years of age, whereas other companies may not apply any extra fees for this age group. Be sure to go through the terms and conditions of your prospective rental dealer to avoid extra charges at the rental desk.
Can I drive in Leicester with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license from the United States, you may be required to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S, know that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the car must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local regulations, and with the car rental company before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you usually can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse rough terrain with your home. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
