How old do you have to be to hire a car in Los Altos?
If you’re 21 and above, you can hire a car in Los Altos. Take into account that rental providers will charge an extra fee if you’re a young driver, which is meant to cover the higher accident or damage risk involved. Also, young motorists often aren’t permitted to rent larger vehicles and luxury cars. Thoroughly read the fine print before booking so there are no surprises when it’s time to pick up the keys.
What do you need to hire a car in Los Altos?
While terms and conditions may differ between car hire outlets in Los Altos, the essentials are a current driver’s license and a credit card in your name. You don’t need to take out the company’s auto insurance. However, proof of your own coverage may be required.

Where can I find a Los Altos hire car if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a young driver hoping to book a hire car in Los Altos, we recommend reading the terms and conditions of the hire companies you’re interested in. Some may hire to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be additional costs if you’re between 21 and 24 years of age. To escape any surprises on pick-up, make sure you know what those charges are if they apply to you.
Can I drive in Los Altos with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license issued in the United States, 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 required for you 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 used to hire the vehicle must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your hire. Other things you should know about hired cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states in order to hire a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as the car hire website before you go to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you usually can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse rough terrain with a hire car. Please read the details before booking!
