How old do you have to be to rent a car in Reading?
If you’re 21 and over, you can hire a vehicle in Reading. Be aware that most rental companies will charge young drivers an additional fee, which is meant to cover the higher damage or accident risk involved. Also, young motorists often aren’t permitted to rent larger or luxury models of cars. Browse the fine print before you book so there are no hassles when you collect the keys.
What do you need to hire a car in Reading?

Where can I find a Reading hire car if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to check the age policy of the Reading rental suppliers you’re interested in. If you’re under the age of 25, some will charge extra costs. It’s good to know about this ahead of time so you can budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own terms and conditions for young drivers, so it pays to do your research.
Can I drive in Reading with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the United States, you may be required 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 part of the requirements to drive in the U.S, know that you’ll also have to show your current valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, your credit card used to hire the car must also match the name on your driver’s 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 areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the company you’re hiring from before you book to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your hire vehicle. Please read the details before booking!
