Some outlets have a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24 years of age, however others may not apply any additional fees for this age range. Make sure you go through the terms and conditions of your preferred car company to avoid any surprise charges when picking up your keys.

Question 13

Can I drive in Albany 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 renting a car. If you find that an IDP is required, note that you'll also need to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about renting a car in the U.S. Are:

Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local regulations, and with the car rental company before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
Driving limitations: Be sure 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, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car rental. Please read the details before you book!
