How old do you have to be to rent a car in Charlotte?

You’ll generally have fewer car categories to pick from, such as economy and mid-size, and may also be required to purchase inclusive insurance. Be sure to enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to find out if any restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in Charlotte?
While terms and conditions may differ between car rental outlets, the two things you’ll need are a valid 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 your own coverage may be required.

Where can I find a Charlotte car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a young driver hoping to rent a vehicle in Charlotte, it’d be wise to check the terms and conditions of the various holiday home companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25 some may not. There may be extra costs if you’re between 21 and 24 years of age. To avoid any surprise fees and charges on pickup, make sure you know what to expect.
Can I drive in Charlotte with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license issued in the United States, then you might need to get 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, be aware that you’ll also have to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card 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 many states to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the company you’re renting from before you book to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse rough terrain with your home. Please read the regulations before you book!
