Where can I find a Scotland hire car if I am younger than 25?
Some Scotland companies will hire to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won't. Policies differ between suppliers, so you'll want to do your homework. Also, find out if there are additional costs. Some places will pass on a surcharge to young drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. Make sure you read through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
Can I drive in Scotland with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in 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 required for you to drive in the U.S, know that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to hire the vehicle must 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 need to be 25 or older in many states in order to hire a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the hired car company before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you drive off the lot to avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse rough terrain with your car hire. Please read the regulations before booking!
