It’d be smart to understand the terms and conditions of your chosen car company to avoid unnecessary costs when picking up your keys.
Can I drive in Rome with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the United States, you may be required to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country 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 valid driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the car must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to confirm your home. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with a rental car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
