If you’re aged 21 and over, you can rent a car in Columbus. Be mindful that home providers will charge young drivers an extra fee, which is meant to cover the higher accident risk involved. Also, young motorists are generally restricted from renting specialty or luxury vehicles. Browse the terms and conditions before you book to avoid any hassles during pickup.

The essentials are a valid driver’s license and a credit card in the same name. Many car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of alternative coverage if you opt out. We recommend checking with your home agency to avoid any hassles.

Whether you can rent a vehicle if you are under 25 years old in Columbus often depends on the holiday home supplier you select.

It’d be wise to go through the terms and conditions of your prospective holiday home company to escape any nasty surprises when picking up your keys.

If you don’t have a driver’s license from the United States, you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required for you 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 car must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about rental cars in the U.S. Are:

• Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many states to rent a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking state and local regulations, and with the car rental company before you book to understand additional terms and conditions.
• Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off the lot to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse rough terrain with your car rental. Please read the regulations before you book!
