Where can I find a Washington car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Washington providers will rent cars to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won’t. Policies differ between suppliers, so you’ll need to do your homework. Also, find out if there are any additional costs. Some places will have a surcharge for young drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. Make sure you read through the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
Can I drive in Washington with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess 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 renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S, note that you’ll also need to show your valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the car 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 must be at least 25 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 company you’re renting from before you travel to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you get behind the wheel to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with a rental car.
