Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the car needs to match the name on your 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 or older in many states in order 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 go to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse off-road areas with your rental car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
