How old do you have to be to rent a car in Dublin?
Dublin rules state drivers must be 21 and over before they can rent a vehicle. However, young drivers can expect an extra charge and tighter rental conditions. Most providers impose a young renter fee on top of the standard car rental rate. This helps cover the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like compact and mid-size) are available to young drivers, restrictions generally apply to luxury and specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Dublin?
In most cases, all you'll need is a driver's licence and a credit card in the same name when picking up the car. Proof of coverage may also be required if you'd like to opt out of the company's insurance policy. Requirements are likely to differ between providers, so it's always a good idea to check before booking.

Where can I find a Dublin car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to check the age policy of the Dublin rental providers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years old, some will charge additional costs. It's better to know this before arriving at the desk so you can budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own rules for younger drivers, so it pays to do your research.
Can I drive in Dublin with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license from the United States, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence 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 valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the car must also match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to confirm your home. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you leave the lot 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, use car ferries or go off-roading with your car rental. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
