How old do you have to be to rent a car in Sunset?
Home vehicle rules in Sunset require drivers to be 21 and above. Are you a younger driver? Some restrictions and surcharges could apply. Home suppliers impose what is known as a young renter surcharge, which is an additional fee to the rental car cost. Restrictions usually apply to the types of cars young drivers can rent as well. Age limits may differ between providers, so check before booking.
What do you need to rent a car in Sunset?
Two things — a valid driver’s license and a credit card in the same 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 prefer to opt out. We recommend checking your policy requirements to avoid any problems.

Where can I find a Sunset car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the holiday home companies that are in Sunset. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you’ve found an outlet that does cater to drivers under the age of 25 be aware that extra fees may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before picking up your vehicle.
Can I drive in Sunset with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the United States, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S, be aware that you’ll also have to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the vehicle needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 in many states to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you book to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse rough terrain with your rental car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
