Higher limits are in place for large vehicles like premium SUVs and luxury models.
What do you need to rent a car in Paris?

Where can I find a Paris car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the car rental companies located in Paris. They often have different age policies. If you’ve found a place that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, be aware that extra costs may apply. Conduct some research into any extra charges before booking your holiday home car.
Can I drive in Paris with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license from the U.S, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. 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 current driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the company you’re renting from before you book to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you leave the lot to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse rough terrain with a rental car. Please read the regulations before you book!
