How old do you have to be to rent a car in Boston?
You’ll need to be at least 21 to grab the keys to a rental car in Boston. Be aware that young drivers may only be able to rent from a few car classes, such as compact and medium size. Higher age limits generally apply for larger and luxury vehicles. Many providers will also charge a fee for young renters. Check the rules before clicking book and factor any extra fees into your holiday budget.
What do you need to rent a car in Boston?
While rules may differ between outlets, generally the essentials are a current driver’s license and a credit card in the same name. You don’t need to take out insurance with your home company. However, proof of alternative coverage may be necessary.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Boston?
Yes, and the awesome news is suppliers often offer lower rates the longer you rent. Look up our long-term car rental deals in Boston and hit the road with a serious bargain.
Where can I find a Boston car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to look up the age policy of the Boston holiday home suppliers you’re interested in. If you’re under 25 years of age, be aware that some will charge additional costs. It’s good to know this before arriving at the desk so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Each holiday home car company has its own rules for young drivers, so be sure to do your research.
Can I drive in Boston with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the U.S, you may be required to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S., know 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 rent the car must match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 or older in many states in order to rent a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking state and local regulations, and with the car rental company before you travel to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse rough terrain with your car rental. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
