How old do you have to be to rent a car in Carmel Highlands?
Home vehicle rules in Carmel Highlands require drivers to be 21 and above. Are you a young driver? Surcharges and restrictions could apply. Most home providers impose what is known as a young driver surcharge, which is an extra fee to the cost of the rental car. Restrictions generally apply to the classes of cars young motorists can rent as well. Age limits may differ between suppliers, so check before booking.
What do you need to rent a car in Carmel Highlands?
Your driver’s license and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Opting out of the company’s insurance plan? In that case, you may also require proof of other coverage. Rules may differ between providers, so read through your policy.

Yes, so you won’t need to rebook a holiday home vehicle halfway through your holiday. Check out our long-term car rental deals page, enter your details and book a ride that’s all yours for the length of your break.
Where can I find a Carmel Highlands car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Carmel Highlands providers will rent to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won’t. Age policies differ between suppliers, so you’ll have to do some research. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some outlets will have a surcharge for young drivers between 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
Can I drive in Carmel Highlands with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license issued in the U.S, then 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 required, be aware that you’ll also have to show your current valid driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about rental cars 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 places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the company you’re renting from before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When renting a car in the United States, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse rough terrain with a rental car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
