What do you need to rent a car in Clearwater?

Where can I find a Clearwater car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between holiday home companies, so be prepared to do some research. Found a Clearwater outlet that does rent to drivers under 25? Terrific! Just bear in mind that extra charges often apply to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each holiday home car you’re interested in should have all the details you need.
Can I drive in Clearwater with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license from the U.S, you may be required to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. If you find that an IDP is required, 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 that was used to rent the car must match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many states in order 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 rental car company before you book to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When renting a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with a rental car. Please read the regulations before booking!
