Where can I find a Charleston hire car if I am younger than 25?
Some Charleston companies will rent cars to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you'll need to do some research. Also, find out if there are any additional costs. Some businesses will have a surcharge for young customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
Can I drive in Charleston with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license issued in the United States, you may be required to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car. 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 used to hire the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your hire. Some additional requirements for hiring a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 in many states to hire a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local regulations, and with the car hire company before you book to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off the lot to avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your car hire. Please read the details before booking!
