Be sure to enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to learn if any restrictions apply to you.
What do you need to rent a car in The Joshua Tree?
Before you can take the wheel in The Joshua Tree, you'll need a driver's licence and a credit card. If you decline to take out the rental company's insurance plan, you may also have to show proof of your own coverage. Requirements can vary, so read the policy terms and conditions before you choose a rental provider.

Where can I find a The Joshua Tree car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a young driver looking for a rental in The Joshua Tree, we suggest reading the terms and conditions of the car rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be extra fees if you're aged between 21 and 24. To avoid any unwanted surprises at the rental desk, make sure you do your research.
Can I drive in The Joshua Tree with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in the U.S, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car. If you find that an IDP is required for you 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, your credit card used to rent the vehicle must also 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 need to be 25 or older 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 rental car company before you go to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your rental car. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
