How old do you have to be to rent a car in Sterling?
Drivers need to be at least 21. But there are a handful of age-related restrictions you should be aware of before you reserve your wheels in Sterling. If you’re a young driver, most home suppliers will charge an additional fee and limit the sorts of vehicles you can rent. The surcharge amount, and which ages it applies to, differs between providers. It’s always a good idea to compare the requirements.
What do you need to rent a car in Sterling?
The main things are a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name. Most car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of alternative coverage if you choose to opt out. We recommend checking your policy terms and conditions to avoid any problems.

Where can I find a Sterling car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the holiday home car companies that are found in Sterling. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you’ve found a supplier that does cater to drivers under the age of 25 keep in mind that extra fees may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before booking your holiday home.
Can I drive in Sterling with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license issued in the United States, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car. 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 current valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Additional requirements for car rentals 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 local regulations, and with the car rental company before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your rental car.
