How old do you have to be to rent a car in Durham?
If you’re 21 and above, you can rent a vehicle in Durham. Bear in mind that home companies will charge an extra fee if you’re a young driver, which helps cover the higher damage risk involved. Also, young drivers are often restricted from renting larger vehicles and luxury cars. Read through the fine print before you book to avoid any problems when you collect the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Durham?
You’ll generally require a valid driver’s license and credit card in your name when picking up the vehicle. You may also need your own proof of coverage if you’d like to opt out of the company’s insurance policy. Requirements are likely to differ between providers, so remember to check while booking.

Where can I find a Durham car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the holiday home car companies located in Durham. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you’ve found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, bear in mind that additional fees may apply. Conduct some research into any extra charges before booking your holiday home car.
Can I drive in Durham with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license from the U.S, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S., know that you’ll also have to show your current 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 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 areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local regulations, and with the car rental company before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you usually can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse rough terrain with your home. Please read the details before you book!
