How old do you have to be to rent a car in Columbia?
Rental vehicle rules in Columbia require drivers to be 21 and over. Are you a young driver? Some restrictions and surcharges may apply. Rental companies impose what is known as a young driver surcharge, which is an additional fee to the car rental cost. Restrictions usually apply to the types of cars young motorists can rent as well. Age limits may differ between outlets, so check before you book.
What do you need to rent a car in Columbia?
Generally, you'll need a valid driver's licence and a credit card in the same name when picking up the car. Proof of coverage may also be needed if you'd prefer to opt out of the company's insurance policy. Requirements are likely to differ between rental companies, so it's always a good idea to check while booking.

Where can I find a Columbia car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the rental car companies that operate in Columbia. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found a place that does cater to drivers under the age of 25, keep in mind that extra costs may apply. Do some research into any extra charges before you collect the car.
Can I drive in Columbia with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in the United States, then you may need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car. 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 current driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the vehicle must also match the name on your driver's 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 in many states to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the car rental website before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid any 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 off-road areas with your car rental. Please read the details before you book!
