Question 8

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Long Beach?

Accepted Answer

Rental car rules in Long Beach require drivers to be 21 and above. Are you a younger driver? A few surcharges and restrictions could apply. Rental companies impose what is known as a young renter surcharge, which is an extra fee to the car rental cost. Restrictions generally apply to the categories of cars available to young people as well. Age limits may differ between companies, so check before you book.

Question 9

What do you need to rent a car in Long Beach?

Accepted Answer

Generally, all that's required is a valid driver's licence and credit card in your name when collecting the vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be required if you'd prefer to opt out of the company's insurance plan. Requirements are likely to differ between rental outlets, so it's wise to check before you book.

Question 12

Where can I find a Long Beach car rental if I am younger than 25?

Accepted Answer

Age policies differ between rental companies, so be prepared to do a little shopping around. Found a Long Beach outlet that does rent to drivers under the age of 25? Terrific! Just take note that an extra charge often applies to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're considering will have all the information you need.

Question 13

Can I drive in Long Beach with my current driver's license?

Accepted Answer

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 country of residence 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 form of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the vehicle must also match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about rental cars 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 state and local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you go to understand additional terms and conditions.
Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse rough terrain with a rental car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
