Some businesses apply a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24 years old, however others may not have any additional fees for this age bracket. It’d be good to understand the terms and conditions of your preferred holiday home dealer to avoid excessive charges when picking up your keys.
Can I drive in Downtown Asheville with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license from the United States, then you may need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S, know that you’ll also have to show your current valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the vehicle needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 in many states 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 go to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you drive off 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, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with a rental car.
