Where can I find an Oakland hire car if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look into the age policy of the Oakland rental providers you're interested in. If you're under the age of 25, be mindful that some will charge additional costs. It's ideal to know this before arriving at the desk so you can have the funds ready. Each car hire company has its own rules for younger drivers, so do your research.
Can I drive in Oakland with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in the United States, then you may need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence 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, note that you'll also need to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to hire the vehicle needs to match the name on your 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'll need to be 25 or older in many states in order to hire a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the hired car company before your trip to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel to avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car hire. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
