Question 11

Where can I find a Richmond hire car if I am younger than 25?

Accepted Answer

If you're a younger driver looking for a hire car in Richmond, we recommend checking the policies of the hire companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. There may be extra fees if you're between 21 and 24 years of age. To avoid any nasty surprises at the hire desk, make sure you know exactly what to expect.

Question 12

Can I drive in Richmond with my current driver's license?

Accepted Answer

If you don't possess a driver's license from the United States, you might need to organise 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 valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card that was used to hire the vehicle 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, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the hired car company before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When hiring a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your hire car. Please read the regulations before you book!
