Can I drive in Salt Lake City with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license from the United States, you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car. 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 forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the car must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 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 with the company you’re renting from before you book to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you usually can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse off-road areas with your car rental. Please read the regulations before booking!
