The minimum age requirement for renting a car varies by rental company and location. Generally, it's around 21 to 25 years old, but some companies might allow younger drivers with an additional fee. It's best to check with the specific rental agency for their age policy.

You typically need a valid driver's license, a major credit card in your name, and sometimes an additional form of identification, like a passport. International renters might need an international driving permit if their license is not in English or if required by the rental agency.

Most rental companies offer basic insurance coverage as part of the rental fee. This usually includes collision damage waiver (CDW) or loss damage waiver (LDW), which limits your financial responsibility in case of an accident or theft. However, this coverage often comes with a deductible. You can also choose to purchase additional coverage for more comprehensive protection.
