Read through the rules carefully before hitting the book button and factor any extra fees into your travel budget.

Where can I find a Boston hire car if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a young driver looking to hire a car in Boston, check the policies of the car hire companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be additional costs if you’re aged between 21 and 24. To escape any nasty surprises at the rental counter, make sure you know what to expect.
Can I drive in Boston with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the U.S, you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before hiring 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 forms of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to hire the car must match the name on your 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 or older in many states in order to hire a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the company you’re hiring from before you book to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse rough terrain with your hired vehicle. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
