How old do you have to be to rent a car in Salem?
In Salem, the requirement is generally 21 years of age and over. Most companies will charge additional fees for young drivers, which can differ based on the home location. Home policies for young drivers may restrict certain vehicles, such as specialty cars, and require comprehensive insurance. Be sure to check the fine print before choosing your ride.
What do you need to rent a car in Salem?
While rules can differ between rental car outlets, generally the essentials are a valid driver’s license and a credit card in the same name. You don’t need to take out insurance with your home company. However, proof of your own coverage may be required.

Where can I find a Salem car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the holiday home car companies that operate in Salem. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you’ve found an outlet that does cater to drivers under 25 bear in mind that extra fees may apply. Conduct some research into any extra charges before picking up your vehicle.
Can I drive in Salem with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license from the United States, 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, be aware that you’ll also have to show your current 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 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’ll need to be 25 or older 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 the car rental website before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you usually can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse rough terrain with your rental car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
