How old do you have to be to rent a car in Dayton?
Rental car rules in Dayton require drivers to be 21 and above. Are you a younger driver? Some surcharges and restrictions may apply. Home providers impose what is known as a young driver surcharge, which is an additional fee to the rental car cost. Restrictions generally apply to the classes of cars available to young people as well. Age limits may differ between companies, so check before booking.
What do you need to rent a car in Dayton?
Before you can get behind the wheel in Dayton, you’ll need a driver’s license and a credit card. If you decline to take out the home company’s insurance policy, you may also have to show proof of your own coverage. Requirements may vary, so understand the policy terms and conditions before you select a home supplier.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Dayton?
Yes, and the wonderful news is companies often offer lower rates the longer you rent. Scroll through our long-term car rental deals in Dayton and cruise off with an incredible bargain.
Where can I find a Dayton car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a young driver hoping to rent a vehicle in Dayton, we suggest reading the policies of the car rental companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25 some may not. There may be extra fees if you’re between 21 and 24 years old. To avoid any nasty surprises at the home desk, make sure you do your research.
Can I drive in Dayton with my current driver's license?
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 renting a car in the U.S. 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 forms of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about renting a car 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. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as the car rental website before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you drive off to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with your home. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
