Where can I find a Houston car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental suppliers, so be prepared to do a bit of homework. Found a Houston outlet that does rent to drivers under the age of 25? That's great! Just bear in mind that extra charges often apply to drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're interested in should have all the details you need.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Houston?
After meticulously planning your getaway, don't scrimp on your insurance — choose collision protection while booking your Houston rental vehicle with Expedia.

Plus, with no deductible and 24-hour emergency help, you'll be able to breathe a little easier if a mishap occurs.
Can I drive in Houston with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Scotland, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be able to rent a car. You should also be aware that if you do need an IDP, it won't be valid on its own. You'll need to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some additional requirements to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger, it might still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to what kinds of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before you drive away. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on off-road areas with a rental vehicle.
