How old do you have to be to rent a car in Richmond?
Drivers aged 21 and above can get on the road in Richmond in a home vehicle. If you’re a young driver, a daily surcharge applies. You’ll usually have fewer car categories to select from, such as economy and compact, and may also be required to purchase an all-inclusive insurance rate. Be sure to enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to learn if any restrictions apply to you.
What do you need to rent a car in Richmond?
Before you can road trip around Richmond, you’ll need a valid driver’s license and a credit card that matches the name on your license. If you don’t take out the company’s insurance policy, you may also have to show proof of other coverage. Requirements may vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you select a home company.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Richmond?
Yes, so there’s no need to rebook a holiday home car in the middle of your holiday. Head over to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your travel dates and reserve a set of wheels that’s all yours for the next month or so.
Where can I find a Richmond car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the car rental companies that are found in Richmond. They often have different age policies. If you’ve found a place that does cater to drivers under the age of 25 be aware that extra costs may apply. Do some research into any extra charges before booking your holiday home car.
Can I drive in Richmond with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license issued in the U.S, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S., note that you’ll also need to show your current valid driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. 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 must be at least 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you go to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid 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 home. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
