Where can I find an Oakland hire car if I am younger than 25?
Hiring a car under the age of 25 in Oakland often depends on the rental company you select. Some places apply a surcharge for drivers between 21 and 24 years of age, however others may not have any additional costs for this age range. Be sure to go through the terms and conditions of your preferred car company to escape any nasty surprises when picking up your keys.
Can I drive in Oakland with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license issued in the United States, you may be required to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, know that you’ll also have to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to hire the car must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to confirm your hire. Additional requirements for hire cars 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 areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, and with the hire car company before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you usually can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with your hire car. Please read the regulations before you book!
