If you’re a young driver hoping to rent a car in Long Beach, check the terms and conditions of the car rental companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25 some may not. There may be additional fees if you’re aged between 21 and 24. To avoid any surprises at the holiday home desk, make sure you know what to expect.
Can I drive in Long Beach with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license issued in 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, know that you’ll also have to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about rental cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as the car rental website before you go 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, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your home vehicle. Please read the regulations before booking!
