Where can I find a Dover car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Dover companies will rent cars to drivers under 25 years old, and others won’t. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you’ll need to do your homework. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some places will pass on a surcharge to customers between 21 and 24. Be sure to read through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
Can I drive in Dover with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license from the United States, you may be required to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. If you find that an IDP is required, be aware that you’ll also have to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the car needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Some additional requirements for renting a car 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 places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the company you’re renting from before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you usually can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with a rental car. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
