How old do you have to be to rent a car in La Jolla?
You need to be at least 21. But there are a few age-related restrictions you should keep in mind before locking in your La Jolla wheels. If you’re a younger motorist, many home outlets will charge an extra daily fee and limit the types of cars you can rent. The surcharge, and which age range it applies to, differs between providers. It’s always a good idea to compare the rules.
What do you need to rent a car in La Jolla?
While rules can differ between rental car outlets in La Jolla, the two things you’ll need are a valid driver’s license and a credit card. You don’t need to take out the company’s auto insurance. However, proof of your own coverage may be required.

Where can I find a La Jolla car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some La Jolla companies will rent cars to drivers under 25 and others won’t. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you should do your homework. Also, find out if there are any additional costs. Some businesses will have a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24. Always look through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
Can I drive in La Jolla with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license issued in the United States, you may be required to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting 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 identification. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the car needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the car rental website before you travel to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your rental car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
