How old do you have to be to rent a car in Monterey?
In Monterey, the requirement is generally 21 and over. Most companies will charge additional fees for young drivers, which can vary based on the home location. Home agreements for young drivers may restrict certain vehicles, such as large SUVs, and require comprehensive insurance. Don’t forget to check the fine print before choosing your wheels.
What do you need to rent a car in Monterey?
Two things — your driver’s license and a credit card in your name. Car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of other coverage if you choose to opt out. Make sure you check with your supplier to avoid any issues.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Monterey?
You can, and the wonderful news is companies often offer lower prices the longer you rent. Check out our long-term car rental deals in Monterey and hit the road with an amazing bargain.
Where can I find a Monterey car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to investigate the age policy of the Monterey holiday home suppliers you’re considering. If you’re under 25 years of age, some companies will charge additional costs. It’s useful to know about this in advance so you can have the funds ready. Each holiday home car company has its own policies for younger drivers, so do your research.
Can I drive in Monterey with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the United States, then you might need to apply for 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, note that you’ll also need to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the car must match the name on your driver’s 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 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 state and local regulations, and with the car rental company before you book to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off the lot to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your rental car. Please read the regulations before you book!
