Where can I find an East Chicago car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a young driver hoping to book a holiday home in East Chicago, we recommend checking the policies of the holiday home companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25 some may not. Surcharges may apply if you’re aged between 21 and 24. To avoid any surprise fees and charges on pickup, make sure you know if any extra charges apply to you.
Can I drive in East Chicago with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license issued in the U.S, you may be required 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, know that you’ll also have to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the car must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 or older in many states 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: Read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse rough terrain with your rental car. Please read the regulations before booking!
