Question 11

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

Accepted Answer

If you don't have a license issued in the United States, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the car hire process. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements 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 ID. Lastly, the credit card used to hire the vehicle needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Some additional requirements for hiring a car 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. We recommend checking local regulations, and with the hire car company before you book 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, you usually can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with a hired car. Please read the details before you book!
