If you don't possess a driver's license from the U.S, you may be required 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, be aware that you'll also have to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the vehicle 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'll need to be 25 in many states to rent a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you book to understand all the terms and conditions.
• Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your home vehicle. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
