Can I drive in Carmel Valley with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license from the U.S, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required, know that you’ll also have 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 vehicle needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Additional requirements for car hire in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states to hire a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the company you’re hiring from before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • 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 typically can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse off-road areas with a hire car. Please read the regulations before you book!
