If you don't possess a driver's license from the United States, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the car hire process. 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 form of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to hire the vehicle must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your hire. Other things you should know about hire cars in the U.S. Are:

• Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many states in order 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 travel to understand additional terms and conditions.
• Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, you typically can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse rough terrain with your hired vehicle. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
