Where can I find a Panama hire car if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to investigate the age policy of the Panama hire suppliers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years of age, be aware that some will charge additional fees. It's best to know this before collecting the vehicle so you can budget accordingly. Every car hire company has its own rules for young drivers, so do your research.
Can I drive in Panama with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in the U.S, you might need to apply for 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 required for you 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, your 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. Other things you should know about hire cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in many states to hire a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the hired car company before you book to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with a hired car. Please read the regulations before you book!
