If you don't have a driver's license from the U.S, then 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 required for you to drive in the U.S., know that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to hire the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Other things you should know about hire cars in the U.S. Are:

• Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 in many states to hire a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the car hire website before you book to understand additional terms and conditions.
• Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When hiring a car in the U.S, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your car hire. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
