If you're a younger motorist, many rental providers will charge an additional daily fee and limit the types of vehicles you're able to rent. The precise surcharge, and which ages it applies to, varies between outlets. Take the time to compare the rules.
What do you need to rent a car in Portsmouth?
Your driver's licence and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? Then you may also need proof of other coverage. Requirements may differ between suppliers, so read through your policy.

Where can I find a Portsmouth car rental if I am younger than 25?
Renting a vehicle if you're under 25 years in Portsmouth often depends on the rental provider you choose. Some businesses apply a surcharge for young drivers between 21 and 24 years old, yet other companies may not apply any extra fees for this age bracket. It'd be good to go through the terms and conditions of your prospective car rental dealer to avoid extra costs when picking up your keys.
Can I drive in Portsmouth with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in the United States, you may be required to get 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 valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the vehicle needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in many states to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the company you're renting from before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your home. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
