If you don’t have a driver’s license issued in the U.S, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car.

Lastly, your credit card used to hire the car must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Additional requirements for hire cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 in many states in order to hire a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the hire car website before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off the lot to avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with your car hire. Please read the regulations before you book!
