Where can I find a Salem car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look into the age policy of the Salem rental suppliers you're considering. If you're under 25 years of age, some will charge extra fees. It's best to know this before arriving at the desk so you can plan your budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own policies for younger drivers, so do your research.
Can I drive in Salem with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license issued in the United States, you might 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 required for you to drive in the U.S, know that you'll also have to show your current 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 license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Additional requirements for car rentals 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 places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the company you're renting from before you go to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with your car rental. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
