How old do you have to be to rent a car in Durham?
Rental car rules in Durham require drivers to be 21 and older. Are you a younger driver? A few surcharges and restrictions could apply. Home companies impose what is known as a young driver surcharge, which is an extra fee to the rental car cost. Restrictions usually apply to the categories of cars young people can rent as well. Age limits may differ between providers, so check before you book.
What do you need to rent a car in Durham?
Any home company you select will ask for these two things — a valid driver’s license and credit card. If you’d like to opt out of the provider’s insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring when it’s time to collect your wheels.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Durham?
You can rent a car for a month or longer in Durham, so don’t hestitate to extend your holiday! Just enter your trip details into our long-term car rental deals page and find your perfect ride.
Where can I find a Durham car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Durham companies will rent to drivers under 25 years old, and others won’t. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you should do some research. Also, find out if there are any additional costs. Some outlets will have a surcharge for young drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
Can I drive in Durham with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license from the U.S, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. 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 current valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the vehicle must also 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 must be at least 25 in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the company you’re renting from before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your home vehicle. Please read the details before booking!
