Where can I find a Knoxville car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to look up the age policy of the Knoxville home suppliers you’re considering. If you’re under 25 years of age, some will charge extra fees. It’s good to know about this before collecting the vehicle so you can budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so it’d be wise to do your research.
Can I drive in Knoxville with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the United States, you may be required to get 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 valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the car 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 must be at least 25 in many states to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the car rental website before your trip to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or go off-roading with a rental car. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
