Some San Antonio outlets will rent cars to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you'll have to do your homework. Also, find out if there are any additional costs. Some places will apply a surcharge to young customers between 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
Can I drive in San Antonio with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in the United States, 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 part of the requirements to drive in the U.S, know that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the car must also match the name on your driver's 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 most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the company you're renting from before you travel to understand additional 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 usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse rough terrain with a rental car.
