If you don't have a driver's license from the U.S, you may be required to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the car hire process.

Lastly, your credit card used to hire the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Additional requirements for hire cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states to hire a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the hired car company before you go to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse rough terrain with your hired vehicle. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
