Some Sacramento companies will rent cars to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so be prepared to do some research. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some places will apply a surcharge to customers between 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
Can I drive in Sacramento with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in the U.S, then you might need to apply for 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, note that you'll also need 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 car must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about rental cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many states in order to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you travel to understand all the 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 onto ferries or go off-roading with a rental car. Please read the regulations before you book!
