Can I drive in Melbourne with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license issued in the United States, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required, know that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the 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 car hire 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 allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the hired car company before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse rough terrain with your hired car. Please read the regulations before booking!
