How old do you have to be to rent a car in Gainesville?
Drivers need to be at least 21. But there are several age-related requirements to bear in mind before booking your wheels in Gainesville. If you're a younger motorist, most rental companies will charge an extra fee and limit the kinds of cars you can rent. The surcharge, and which age range it applies to, varies between providers. Be sure to compare the rules.
What do you need to hire a car in Gainesville?
A current driver's license and a credit card in the same name are two essentials. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? If that's the case, you may need proof of your own coverage. Requirements may differ from hire company to hire company, so read your policy thoroughly.

Where can I find a Gainesville hire car if I am younger than 25?
If you're a young driver hoping to hire a vehicle in Gainesville, we suggest reading the terms and conditions of the various rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be additional costs if you're aged between 21 and 24. To avoid any surprises at the hire counter, make sure you know what those charges are if they apply to you.
Can I drive in Gainesville with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the United States, then you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence 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 current valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was 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 hire cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in many states in order to hire a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as the hire car website before you travel to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your hired vehicle. Please read the details before you book!
