Find out what ages the young driver surcharge applies to, and associated costs, before making your reservation. There are also restrictions on the categories of cars available to young drivers.

What do you need to rent a car in Nantucket?
Any home company you choose will require two things — a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name.

Where can I find a Nantucket car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Nantucket companies will rent to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won’t. Age policies differ between suppliers, so you’ll want to do some research. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some places will apply a surcharge to young customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Make sure you read through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
Can I drive in Nantucket with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license issued in the United States, you may be required to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, be aware that you’ll also have to show your 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 finalize your car rental. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 or older in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, and with the car rental company before your trip to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with your rental car. Please read the regulations before booking!
