Where can I find a Karlstad hire car if I am younger than 25?
Renting a car if you are under 25 in Karlstad often depends on the hire company you choose. Some outlets apply a surcharge for drivers between 21 and 24 years old, whereas other companies may not apply any additional fees for this age range. It'd be smart to read the terms and conditions of your prospective car rental dealer to escape any nasty surprises when collecting your car.
Can I drive in Karlstad with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license from the U.S, you may be required to get 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., be aware that you'll also have to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card used to hire the vehicle must also match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to confirm your hire. Some additional requirements for hiring a car 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 areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the company you're hiring from before you travel to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse rough terrain with your hire car. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
