If you don't have a license issued in the U.S, then you may 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 part of the requirements to drive in the U.S., be aware that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to hire the vehicle must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your hire. Other things you should know about hired cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states in order to hire a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as the hire car website before you travel to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to 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 Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse rough terrain with your hired car. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
