  1. What are the Car Rental Requirements?

  2. Age At what age can you rent a car? This question comes to anyone’s mind when they go for a car rental for the first time. The minimum age required to rent a car in most states is 21. However, you may come across services that ask for a minimum age of more than 25 years. There are car rentals that do allow individuals in the age group of 18-24 years under certain specific conditions and an extra fee. This extra fee is taken as an underage fee. It does not imply that every car rental service allows individuals in the underage group.

  3. Documents Next, we move on to the documents needed to rent a car. The mandatory documents that every car rental agency would require are • A government-issued driving license which is valid for the time period of car rental. A temporary license may also be acceptable under certain specific conditions. • A valid ID card or passport to verify your identity. • An international driving permit (in the case of foreign nationals)

  4. Clean Driving Record Having a clean driving record would also be necessary as no agency would rent their cars to reckless drivers. There are cases that count as reckless driving; they are mentioned below. • There should not be any convictions for reckless driving in a specified time frame. Also, there should not be any DUI/DWI/DWAI** convictions. • A record of possessing a stolen vehicle should also not be there. • You should also not have a case of failure to report an accident or running away from an accident. • You should not have any case where you used a vehicle in a crime. • There should be no more than two accidents or moving violations in a specified time period. The number is subject to change in different cases.

  5. Credit/Debit Card You would also need a credit or debit card to deposit the payment for the car rental. Some car rental services may put a hold on your card at the time of renting the car to cover the estimated cost. You should also know that a hold will limit the amount of funds in the account linked with your card. The minimum amount that a rental agency holds is $100, which can move up to $300. The amount held serves as a security deposit.

  6. Insurance Coverage Another important thing you would need for a car rental is insurance coverage. The insurance coverage may be included in your credit card as well. In case you are found to have no insurance coverage, you will have to purchase the coverage from the rental agency. It would certainly be a good idea to ask for the type of coverage the agency requires and to check whether you have it available or not. A non-US resident may be asked to buy the insurance policy.
