What do you need to rent a car in Downtown Cambridge?
Before you can hop behind the wheel in Downtown Cambridge, you’ll need a driver’s license and a credit card that matches the name on your license.

Can I drive in Downtown Cambridge with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license issued in the United States, you may be required to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required, note that you’ll also need to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the car must match the name on your driver’s 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’ll need to be 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the car rental website before you book to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse off-road areas with your home vehicle. Please read the regulations before you book!
