If you don't have 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 required, be aware that you'll also have to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card used to hire the car must also match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to confirm your hire. Other things you should know about hired a car in the U.S. Are:

• Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 in many states in order 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 you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
• Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off 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 onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your hired vehicle. Please read the regulations before you book!
