How old do you have to be to hire a car in Universal City?

Accepted Answer

If you're 21 and over, you can hire a car in Universal City. Bear in mind that rental companies will charge an extra fee if you're a young driver, which helps cover the higher damage risk involved. Also, young motorists are often restricted from renting luxury or specialty vehicles. Browse the fine print before booking to avoid any surprises at pick-up.

What do you need to rent a car in Universal City?

Accepted Answer

In most cases, all you'll need is a valid driver's license and credit card in your name when picking up the car.

These requirements often differ between rental suppliers, so it's wise to check the terms and conditions.

Question 11

Where can I find an Universal City hire car if I am younger than 25?

Accepted Answer

Age policies are different between hire companies, so you'll have to do a little research. Managed to find an Universal City outlet that does hire to drivers under 25 years of age? Terrific news! Just bear in mind that an extra charge often applies to drivers between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each hire car you're looking at will have all the details you need.

Question 12

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

Accepted Answer

If you don't possess a driver's license from the United States, then you may need to apply for 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, know 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 car must also match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Other things you should know about hiring a car in the U.S. Are:

Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 in most states to be able to hire a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the company you're hiring from before you book to understand additional terms and conditions.
Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When hiring a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car hire. Please read the regulations before booking!
