What type of documents do I need to rent a car outside of the United States?
U.S. residents: To rent a car outside of the U.S., the driver will need to present a valid driver’s license and credit card. Both must match the driver’s name. For credit card deposits, you may need as much as $1000 in available funds. If optional items are elected for purchase (e.g., insurance), additional available credit will be required. Please note that the amount of available credit that is necessary varies, depending on the type of car and the rental period. Non-U.S. residents: If you’re a non-U.S driver, the same guidelines apply. However, if your driver’s license is in a language other than English, an International Driver’s Permit is recommended. In all cases, a valid driver’s license issued in your home country must be provided whether or not you possess an International Driver’s Permit. You will not be allowed to rent a car with only an International Driver’s Permit.
