Can I drive in Italy with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in the United States, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence 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, know that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to hire the car must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Additional requirements for car hire 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 areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking state and local regulations, and with the hire car company before you book to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off the lot to avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your hire car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
