How old do you have to be to rent a car in Los Alamos?
The minimum age to rent a car in Los Alamos is 21. A surcharge for young drivers applies, so check before you book and factor in any additional costs. There could also be restrictions on the types of vehicles that can be rented by young drivers. For example, some outlets will only rent out economy, compact and medium-sized cars to young motorists. Requirements may differ between companies, so be sure to read the fine print carefully.
What do you need to rent a car in Los Alamos?
Any home company you choose will ask for these two things — a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name. If you want to opt out of the supplier’s insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Check your policy so you know what to bring when it’s time to collect your wheels.

Where can I find a Los Alamos car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a younger driver hoping to rent a vehicle in Los Alamos, we recommend reading the policies of the various holiday home companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25 some may not. Surcharges may apply if you’re between 21 and 24 years of age. To avoid any surprises at the holiday home counter, make sure you know exactly what to expect.
Can I drive in Los Alamos with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the U.S, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements 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, your credit card used to rent the car must match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to confirm your home. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 or older in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the company you’re renting from before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you leave the lot to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your home vehicle. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
