How old do you have to be to rent a car in Charlotte?
Charlotte requires drivers to be at least 21 before they can rent a car. However, young drivers will be subject to a surcharge and some restrictions on choice. Most suppliers impose a young renter fee in addition to the normal car rental rate. This covers the extra risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like compact and economy) are available to young motorists, restrictions generally apply to premium and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Charlotte?
While booking conditions may differ between rental car outlets, the two things you’ll need are your driver’s license and a credit card in the same name. You don’t need to take out auto insurance with your home provider. However, proof of alternative coverage may be necessary.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Charlotte?
You can rent a vehicle for a month or even longer in Charlotte, so go on and extend your well-deserved holiday! Simply enter your trip dates into our long-term car rental deals page and find your ideal ride.
Where can I find a Charlotte car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Charlotte companies will rent to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won’t. Age policies differ between suppliers, so be prepared to do your homework. Also, find out if there are additional costs. Some outlets will have a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24. Make sure you read through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
Can I drive in Charlotte with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license from the United States, then you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence 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 current valid driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. 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 most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you book to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel 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 booking!
