Renting a vehicle under the age of 25 in Newark often depends on the holiday home provider you choose. Some outlets apply a surcharge for drivers aged between 21 and 24 years, however others may not have any additional costs for this age group. Make sure you understand the terms and conditions of your selected holiday home company to escape any surprise charges at the holiday home desk.
Can I drive in Newark with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license issued in the United States, then 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 required for you to drive in the U.S, be aware that you’ll also have to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the car needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the car rental website before you go 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 United States, you usually can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse off-road areas with a rental car. Please read the regulations before you book!
