How old do you have to be to rent a car in Portsmouth?
Anyone with a valid driver’s license 21 and above can rent a car in Portsmouth. While some suppliers may be willing to rent to drivers younger than 21 prepare for additional fees. Find out what ages the young renter fee applies to, and what it costs, before booking your ride. Outlets also restrict the types of cars young drivers can rent. Higher age limits apply for luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Portsmouth?
Most home companies will ask for these two things — your driver’s license and a credit card in your name. If you decide to opt out of the provider’s insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring when it’s time to pick up the keys.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Portsmouth?
Yes, so you won’t need to rebook a holiday home vehicle in the middle of your holiday. Click through to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and find a set of wheels to call your own for the duration of your getaway.
Where can I find a Portsmouth car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between holiday home suppliers, so you’ll have to do a bit of research. Managed to find a Portsmouth outlet that does rent to drivers under 25? That’s great! Just keep in mind that some companies charge additional fees to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The fine print of each holiday home car you’re interested in will have all the information you need.
Can I drive in Portsmouth with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license from the U.S, then you may need 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, be aware that you’ll also have to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver’s 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 need to be 25 or older in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking state and local regulations, and with the car rental company before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car rental. Please read the regulations before booking!
