Where can I find a Birmingham hire car if I am younger than 25?

Can I drive in Birmingham with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license from the U.S, you may be required to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before hiring a car in the U.S. 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 current driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to hire the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your hire. Other things you should know about 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 areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the company you're hiring from before your trip to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car hire. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
