Where can I find a Charlotte hire car if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the car hire companies operating in Charlotte. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, be aware that extra costs may apply. Conduct some research into any extra charges before booking your rental.
Can I drive in Charlotte with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license from the U.S, you might need to apply for 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., note that you'll also need to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to hire the car 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 regulations, as well as the hire car website before your trip to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off to avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you usually can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with your car hire. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
