How old do you have to be to rent a car in Brighton?
You’ll need to be at least 18 to sit in the driver’s seat of a rental car in Brighton. Take note that young drivers may only be able to rent from a few car classes, such as compact and economy. Higher age limits usually apply for larger and luxury vehicles. Additionally, many companies will charge a young renter fee. Look up the rules before hitting the book button and factor any extra fees into your budget.
What do you need to rent a car in Brighton?
You’ll generally require a current driver’s license and credit card in your name when collecting the car. You may also need proof of coverage if you’d prefer to opt out of the company’s insurance policy. These requirements often differ between providers, so remember to check while booking.

Where can I find a Brighton car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a young driver looking for a holiday home in Brighton, we recommend checking the policies of the various car rental companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25 some may not. There may be additional fees if you’re aged between 21 and 24. To avoid any surprise fees and charges on pickup, make sure you know exactly what to expect.
Can I drive in Brighton with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the U.S, you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S., be aware that you’ll also have to show your current valid driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the vehicle needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about rental cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the car rental website before you book to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can’t 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 booking!
