If you don't have a driver's license from the United States, then you may need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, note that you'll also need to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other form 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 finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about rental cars 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 areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, and with the car rental company before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
• Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse rough terrain with your home vehicle.
