If you don't have a license from the U.S, you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before hiring a car. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S., note that you'll also need to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to hire the vehicle must also match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Additional requirements for car hire in the U.S. Are:

• Age restrictions: You 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 local regulations, as well as with the company you're hiring from before you go to understand all the terms and conditions.
• Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you get behind the wheel to avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse off-road areas with your hired car.
