Where can I find a Salem hire car if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the car hire companies that are found in Salem. They often have different age policies. If you've found a place that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, bear in mind that extra fees may apply. Conduct some research into what those charges could be before picking up the keys to your vehicle.
Can I drive in Salem with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license from the U.S, then you might need to organise 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, note that you'll also need to show your 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 confirm your hire. Additional requirements for car hire 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 rules and regulations, as well as the car hire website before you go to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with a hire car. Please read the regulations before booking!
