Where can I find a Rio car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Rio companies will rent cars to drivers under 25, and others won't. Policies differ between suppliers, so you'll need to do some research. Also, find out if there are any additional costs. Some outlets will have a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
Can I drive in Rio with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the U.S, you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required for you 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, your credit card used to rent the vehicle must 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 must be at least 25 in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as the car rental website before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse rough terrain with your home. Please read the regulations before booking!
