Just be aware that an extra charge often applies to drivers between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're looking at should have all the details you need.
Can I drive in Madison with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license from the United States, you may be required to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, know that you'll also have to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about rental cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, and with the car rental company before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you usually can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your home. Please read the regulations before booking!
