How old do you have to be to rent a car in Los Angeles?
If you’re 21 and over, you can rent a vehicle in Los Angeles. Be mindful that most home suppliers will charge an additional fee if you’re a young driver, which is meant to cover the higher accident or damage risk involved. Also, young drivers are often restricted from renting luxury or specialty vehicles. Check the fine print before booking so there are no surprises when you pick up the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Los Angeles?
The essentials are your driver’s license and a credit card in the same name. Car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of alternative coverage if you choose to opt out. We recommend checking your policy terms and conditions to avoid any issues.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Los Angeles?
Yes, so you won’t have to rebook a rental car in the middle of your holiday. Go to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip information and lock in a ride that’s all yours for the length of your escape.
Where can I find a Los Angeles car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to check the age policy of the Los Angeles home suppliers you’re considering. If you’re under 25 some will charge extra fees. It’s good to know about this before collecting the vehicle so you can plan your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own terms and conditions for young drivers, so it’d be wise to do your research.
Can I drive in Los Angeles with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the United States, you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. 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 valid driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the car must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Additional requirements for car rentals 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 places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local regulations, and with the car rental company before you book to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you get behind the wheel to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or go off-roading with your rental car. Please read the regulations before booking!
