If you don't possess a driver's license from the United States, you may be required 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 part of the requirements to drive in the U.S, be aware that you'll also have to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to hire the vehicle must also match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Other things you should know about hired a car in the U.S. Are:

• Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in most states to be able to hire a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the company you're hiring from before you go to understand all the terms and conditions.
• Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you leave 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, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with a hired car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
