Check before you book, as different rules may apply between rental car providers.

Where can I find a Downtown Fort Lauderdale car rental if I am younger than 25?
The ability to rent a vehicle if you are under 25 years old in Downtown Fort Lauderdale often depends on the holiday home provider you select. Some outlets apply a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24 years of age, whereas others may not apply any extra fees for this age group. Make sure you understand the terms and conditions of your preferred car rental dealer to avoid any nasty surprises when picking up your keys.
Can I drive in Downtown Fort Lauderdale with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s 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, note that you’ll also need to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the vehicle 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 most states to be able 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 additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with your home vehicle.
