This depends on the car rental companies that are found in Townsend. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages.

Can I drive in Townsend with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license issued in the U.S, then you may need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. 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 ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the vehicle 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 many states in order to rent a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking 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: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your home. Please read the regulations before you book!
