If you don't have a driver's license from the U.S, you might need 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., know that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card 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 most states to be able to hire a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking state and local regulations, and with the car hire company before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
• Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you leave the lot to avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse off-road areas with a hire car. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
