It's still good to read your rental policy though because there are some exclusions. If there's nothing specified there, make your way to our Customer Service Portal.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Washington?
Washington rules state drivers must be 21 and over to rent a car. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra cost and some restrictions. Many companies impose a daily young renter fee on top of the car rental rate. This covers the extra risk of accident or damage. While many car categories (like compact and mid-size) are available to young motorists, restrictions usually apply to specialty and luxury vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Washington?
A current driver's licence and a credit card in the same name are two essentials. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? Then you may also need proof of your own coverage. Rules can differ between rental suppliers, so have a thorough read of your policy.
What is the cheapest car rental in Washington?
AU$115 and AU$122 were the cheapest daily prices picked up by car rental customers in Washington within the past seven days. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Washington?
Whether you're planning to stop in Washington or explore beyond, it's easy to book a long-term rental with Expedia. Enter your trip information and pick-up/drop-off locations and we'll help you find the best long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Washington car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental companies, so you'll have to do some research. Managed to find a Washington supplier that does rent to drivers under 25? That's great! Just keep in mind that extra charges often apply to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're looking at will have all the details you need.
Can I drive in Washington with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the U.S, you may be required to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required for you 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 that was used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you go to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • 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 Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your home. Please read the regulations before you book!
