How old do you have to be to rent a car in Washington?

Rental agreements for young drivers may restrict certain vehicles, such as premium SUVs, and require the purchase of comprehensive insurance. Don't forget to read the fine print carefully before booking your ride.
What do you need to hire a car in Washington?
The main things are your driver's license and a credit card in your name. Car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of other coverage if you choose to opt out. We recommend checking with your supplier to avoid any hassles.

Where can I find a Washington hire car if I am younger than 25?
If you're a young driver looking for a hire car in Washington, we suggest reading the terms and conditions of the various car hire companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be extra fees if you're between 21 and 24 years old. To escape any surprise fees and charges at the hire desk, make sure you know what to expect.
Can I drive in Washington with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in the U.S, you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before hiring a car. If you find that an IDP is required, be aware that you'll also have to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to hire the car must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Additional requirements for hire cars in the U.S. Are:
  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 in many states to hire a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as the hire car website before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your hired car. Please read the details before you book!
