Can I drive in Panama City with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license from the U.S, you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the car hire process. If you find that an IDP is required, know that you’ll also have to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, your credit card used to hire the car must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to confirm your hire. Additional requirements for car hire in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 or older in many states in order to hire a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, and with the car hire company before you travel to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you usually can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your hired car. Please read the details before booking!
