Where can I find a Panama City Beach car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the car rental companies that are in Panama City Beach. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you’ve found an outlet that does cater to drivers under 25 take note that extra fees may apply. Conduct some research into what those charges could be before booking your holiday home car.
Can I drive in Panama City Beach with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license from the U.S, you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence 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., know that you’ll also have to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver’s 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 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 state and local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car rental. Please read the details before booking!
