Can I drive in Central Sarasota with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the United States, you may be required to get 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, be aware 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 must match the name on your 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 must be at least 25 in many states in order to hire a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the company you're hiring from before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse off-road areas with a hired car. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
