Where can I find a Panama car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the holiday home companies that are in Panama. They often have different age policies. If you’ve found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25 be aware that extra fees may apply. Conduct some research into any extra charges before booking your holiday home car.
Can I drive in Panama with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have 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 required for you to drive in the U.S, note that you’ll also need to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the car must match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about rental cars 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. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or go off-roading with a rental car. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
