Question 12

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

Accepted Answer

If you're a young driver looking for a car rental in Northwest, we recommend reading the terms and conditions of the various car rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be extra costs if you're aged between 21 and 24. To escape any nasty surprises at the rental desk, make sure you do your research.

Question 13

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

Accepted Answer

If you don't possess a driver's license issued in the United States, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car. 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 driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the vehicle must also match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to confirm your home. Additional requirements for car rentals 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 places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the company you're renting from before you go to understand additional terms and conditions.
Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse rough terrain with your car rental. Please read the details before booking!
