Lastly, your credit card used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, and with the car rental company before you go to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off the lot to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your home vehicle. Please read the regulations before you book!
