Can I drive in Carmel with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the United States, you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car. If you find that an IDP is required, note that you'll also need to show your current driver's license and your passport or other form of ID.

  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your car hire. Please read the details before you book!
