If you don't have a driver's license issued in the U.S, you may be required to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S., know that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, your credit card used to hire the car needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your hire. Additional requirements for 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 rules and regulations, as well as with the company you're hiring from before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
• Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you get behind the wheel 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, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car hire. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
