How old do you have to be to rent a car in Charlotte?
Drivers aged 21 and above can get on the road in Charlotte in a home vehicle. If you’re a young motorist, a daily surcharge will apply. You’ll generally have fewer car categories to choose from, such as economy and mid-size, and may also have to purchase inclusive insurance. Be sure to enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to learn if any restrictions apply to you.
What do you need to rent a car in Charlotte?
Most home companies will need these two things — a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name. If you decide to opt out of the supplier’s insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring when it’s time to collect your wheels.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Charlotte?
Visit our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and then lock in your perfect ride. Whether you’re stopping in Charlotte or venturing far beyond, Expedia will help you find a long-term holiday home at an excellent rate.
Where can I find a Charlotte car rental if I am younger than 25?
Whether you can rent a car under the age of 25 in Charlotte often depends on the holiday home provider you choose. Some places apply a surcharge for drivers aged between 21 and 24 years, however others may not have any additional costs for this age range. Ensure you understand the terms and conditions of your selected holiday home dealer to avoid any surprise charges on pickup.
Can I drive in Charlotte with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license from the United States, then you may need 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, know that you’ll also have to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the car must match the name on your 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 many states in order to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you drive off to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you usually can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with your rental car. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
