Can I drive in Monterey with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license issued in the U.S, you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S., be aware that you’ll also have to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID.

Other things you should know about renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many states in order to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the car rental website before you book to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you leave the lot to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you usually can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your home vehicle. Please read the regulations before you book!
