Where can I find a Cardiff hire car if I am younger than 25?
Hiring a vehicle under the age of 25 in Cardiff often depends on the rental company you choose. Some outlets apply a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24 years old, whereas others may not have any additional fees for this age group. Be sure to read the terms and conditions of your prospective rental dealer to avoid unnecessary costs at the hire desk.
Can I drive in Cardiff with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in the United States, you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the car hire process. If you find that an IDP is required for you 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 used to hire the car must also match the name on your driver's 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 or older 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 your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse rough terrain with your car hire. Please read the regulations before booking!
