What do you need to rent a car in San Francisco?
Generally, all you’ll need is a driver’s license and credit card in your name when picking up your car. You may also need proof of coverage if you choose to opt out of the company’s insurance plan. These requirements often differ between suppliers, so it’s always a good idea to check before you book.
Can I drive in San Francisco with my U.S. Driver's license?
Many places overseas require an International Driving Permit for foreigners to drive legally, so organize one if you plan to hit the road in San Francisco. This permit must be used in conjunction with a valid U.S. License. We highly recommend obtaining this permit well before your departure.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in San Francisco?
Yes, and you’ll find your perfect ride on our long-term car rental deals page. Just enter your trip details and we’ll list excellent offers from numerous reliable suppliers.
Where can I find a San Francisco car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some San Francisco companies will rent cars to drivers under 25 years old, and others won’t. Age policies differ between suppliers, so you’ll have to do some research. Also, find out if there are extra costs. Some places will have a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24. Always look through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
