Find out what ages the young driver surcharge applies to, and what it costs, before booking your wheels. Companies also restrict the types of cars young drivers can rent. Higher age limits apply for large vehicles like premium SUVs and luxury models.
What do you need to rent a car in Milwaukee?
The main things are a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name. Car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of other coverage if you opt out. Make sure you check your policy terms and conditions to avoid any problems.

Where can I find a Milwaukee car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between holiday home suppliers, so you’ll have to do a little research. Managed to find a Milwaukee outlet that does rent to drivers under 25 years of age? That’s great! Just bear in mind that an extra charge often applies to drivers between 21 and 24. The fine print of each holiday home car you’re looking at will have all the details you need.
Can I drive in Milwaukee with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license from the United States, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements 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, your credit card used to rent the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in most states to be able 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 your trip to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or go off-roading with your home. Please read the details before booking!
