If you don't have a driver's license from the U.S, 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, 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 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 hire cars in the U.S. Are:

• Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in many states to hire a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, and with the hire car company before you go to understand all the terms and conditions.
• Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you get 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, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with your hired car. Please read the regulations before you book!
