Whether you can hire a car under the age of 25 in Melbourne often depends on the rental company you choose. Some businesses have a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24 years old, whereas others may not have any extra fees for this age range.

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 country of residence before hiring a car. If you find that an IDP is required, be aware that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to hire the car must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Some additional requirements for hiring a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in most states to be able to hire a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as the hire car website before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you leave the lot to avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with your hire vehicle. Please read the details before booking!
