If you don't possess a driver's license from the United States, you might need 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 required, be aware that you'll also have to show your valid 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. Other things you should know about 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 local rules and regulations, and with the hire car company before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
• Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your hire vehicle. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
