If you don't have a 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, note that you'll also need to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to hire the car must also 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 or older in many states in order to hire a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local regulations, and with the car hire company before your trip 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 typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car hire. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
