Accepted Answer

Some Tacoma outlets will rent to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won't. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you'll have to do your homework. Also, find out if there are additional costs. Some businesses will pass on a surcharge to customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.

Question 13

Can I drive in Tacoma with my current driver's license?

Accepted Answer

If you don't possess 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 starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S, be aware that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Additional requirements for car rentals 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 places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the company you're renting from before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with your home vehicle. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
