What happens if I need to cancel my Charlotte car reservation?
Our Customer Service Portal contains all the specifics about this. In nearly all cases, complete refunds are provided if a prepaid hire is cancelled more than six hours ahead of pick-up. It's a good idea to scan the car hire agreement to double-check if there are any exclusions.
What types of cars can I rent in Charlotte?

How old do you have to be to hire a car in Charlotte?
Charlotte requires drivers to be 21 and above to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers can expect an extra cost and some restrictions on choice. Most providers impose a daily young renter fee in addition to the standard hire car rate. This helps cover the extra risk of accident or damage. While many car categories (like compact and economy) are available to young drivers, restrictions generally apply to specialty and premium cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Charlotte?
In most cases, all you'll need is a valid driver's license and credit card in your name when picking up the vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be required if you decide to opt out of the company's insurance policy. These requirements may differ between hire outlets, so it's always wise to check the terms and conditions.

Where can I find a Charlotte hire car if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the rental companies that are found in Charlotte. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found a place that does cater to drivers under the age of 25, bear in mind that extra costs may apply. Conduct some research into any extra charges before collecting the vehicle.
Can I drive in Charlotte with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in the U.S, you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country 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 forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card you used to hire the vehicle must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your hire. Other things you should know about hired cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many states to hire a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the car hire company before your trip 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 any unnecessary charges. When hiring a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with a hired car. Please read the regulations before you book!
