Age limits may vary between suppliers, so check before booking.
What do you need to hire a car in Downtown Portland?
In most cases, all you'll need is a valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name when collecting the keys to your car.

Where can I find a Downtown Portland hire car if I am younger than 25?
Hiring a car under the age of 25 in Downtown Portland often depends on the hire company you choose. Some outlets have a surcharge for young customers aged between 21 and 24 years, whereas other companies may not have any extra costs for this age group. It'd be smart to go through the terms and conditions of your preferred car hire dealer to escape any nasty surprises at the rental desk.
Can I drive in Downtown Portland with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license issued in the United States, then you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, be aware that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to hire the vehicle must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Additional requirements for hire cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states to hire a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the hire car website before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off 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, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with your hired vehicle. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
