Can I drive in Tahoe with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license from the United States, you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, note that you’ll also need to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to confirm your home. 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. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the company you’re renting from before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel 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 your home vehicle. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
