How old do you have to be to rent a car in Rancho Bernardo?
Rental car rules in Rancho Bernardo require drivers to be 21 and above. Are you a younger driver? Surcharges and restrictions could apply. Home suppliers impose what’s known as a young driver surcharge, which is an extra fee to the cost of the rental car. Restrictions generally apply to the sorts of cars young drivers can rent as well. Age limits may vary between companies, so check before booking.
What do you need to rent a car in Rancho Bernardo?
Most of the time, all you’ll need is a current driver’s license and a credit card in the same name when collecting your car. Proof of coverage may also be needed if you decide to opt out of the company’s insurance plan. These requirements may differ between home companies, so it’s a good idea to check the terms and conditions.

Where can I find a Rancho Bernardo car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between home companies, so you’ll have to do a little research. Found a Rancho Bernardo outlet that does rent to drivers under 25? Terrific! Just take note that an extra charge often applies to drivers between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you’re interested in will have all the details you need.
Can I drive in Rancho Bernardo with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license issued in the U.S, then you may need to get 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 valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about rental cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 or older in most states to be able 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 your trip to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you drive off to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse rough terrain with your car rental. Please read the regulations before booking!
