Can I drive in Embarcadero with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license issued in the United States, then you might need to get 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 current valid driver's license and your passport or other form 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. Other things you should know about renting a car 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 areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the car rental website before you go to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your rental car. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
