How old do you have to be to rent a car in Manhattan?
In Manhattan, the rule is generally 21 and over. Most outlets will charge extra fees for young drivers, which can vary based on the rental location. Rental agreements for young drivers may restrict certain vehicles, such as luxury cars, and require the purchase of comprehensive insurance. It's a good idea to check the fine print before locking in your ride.
What do you need to rent a car in Manhattan?
Generally, all that's required is a driver's licence and credit card in your name when collecting the keys to your vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be needed if you decide to opt out of the company's insurance plan. Rules may differ between suppliers, so be sure to check the terms and conditions.

Where can I find a Manhattan car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a young driver looking for a rental in Manhattan, we suggest reading the policies of the various rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be additional fees if you're between 21 and 24 years of age. To avoid any unpleasant surprises on pickup, make sure you do your research.
Can I drive in Manhattan with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license from the U.S, you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. If you find that an IDP is required, be aware that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the car needs to match the name on your 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'll need to be 25 in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or go off-roading with your home. Please read the regulations before booking!
