When you cancel at least six hours before pickup, most prepaid reservations offer a refund. However, not every one is eligible for this, so it’s important to understand the home agreement. Look over your booking for the finer details or go to our Customer Service Portal for more information.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Charlotte?
In most cases, the requirement is 21 years and over in Charlotte. It’s worth noting that most outlets will charge a young driver fee. Read the fine print before you sign up, as rules may differ between rental car providers. Keep in mind that if you want to rent a luxury vehicle or a larger car like an SUV, rules may require drivers to be older than 21.
What do you need to rent a car in Charlotte?
Be prepared to present a valid driver’s license and a credit card when you get to the home counter. Before pickup, check with your home provider whether other documentation is needed. For example, you may also need to show proof of insurance.

Where can I find a Charlotte car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Charlotte providers will rent to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won’t. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you’ll need to do your homework. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some businesses will have a surcharge for young drivers between 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
Can I drive in Charlotte with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license issued in the U.S, you might need to apply for 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 part of the requirements to drive in the U.S., note that you’ll also need 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 must also 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 in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as the car rental website before your trip to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse rough terrain with your car rental. Please read the details before you book!
