It’s a good idea to read the fine print carefully before booking your ride.
What do you need to hire a car in Portsmouth?

Where can I find a Portsmouth hire car if I am younger than 25?
Some Portsmouth companies will rent cars to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won’t. Policies differ between suppliers, so you should do some research. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some outlets will have a surcharge for young drivers between 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
Can I drive in Portsmouth with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license from the U.S, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before hiring a car. 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 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. Other things you should know about hired a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 in many states in order to hire a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as the car hire website before you go to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel to avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you usually can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse rough terrain with your hired vehicle. Please read the details before you book!
