If you don't have a license from the United States, you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before hiring a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required for you 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 forms of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to hire the car must 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 must be at least 25 in most states to be able to hire a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local regulations, and with the car hire company before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
• Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with a hired car. Please read the regulations before booking!
