  • Head to New York for a fun-filled sightseeing adventure. About 145 kilometres from Portland, it has numerous inspiring attractions, including Times Square.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Portland?
You’ll need to be at least 21 to slide behind the wheel of a home vehicle in Portland. Bear in mind that young drivers may be restricted to renting from a few car categories, such as compact and medium size. Higher age limits generally apply for larger vehicles like premium SUVs. Additionally, most outlets will charge a fee for young renters. Read the rules carefully before booking and factor any surcharge into your holiday budget.
What do you need to rent a car in Portland?
Before you can hit the road in Portland, you’ll need a valid driver’s license and a credit card. If you don’t take out the home company’s insurance policy, you may also have to provide proof of alternative coverage.

Where can I find a Portland car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a younger driver looking for a car rental in Portland, we suggest reading the terms and conditions of the various car rental companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25 some may not. There may be extra costs if you’re between 21 and 24 years of age. To escape any surprises at the holiday home counter, make sure you know what to expect.
Can I drive in Portland with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license from the United States, then you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car. If you find that an IDP is required, note that you’ll also need to show your current valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver’s 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 need to be 25 or older in many states to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local regulations, and with the car rental company before you go to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse rough terrain with your rental car. Please read the details before booking!
