Can I drive in Portsmouth with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the United States, you may be required to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. 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 current valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the car must match the name on your driver's 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 many states to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, and with the car rental company before you travel to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you usually can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with your home vehicle. Please read the details before you book!
