How old do you have to be to rent a car in Washington?
Washington rules state drivers must be at least 21 before they can rent a car. However, young drivers can expect an extra cost and tighter rental conditions. Many companies impose a young renter fee on top of the usual car rental rate. This covers the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like economy and compact) are available to young renters, restrictions generally apply to specialty and luxury vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Washington?
Be prepared to present your driver's license and a credit card in your name when you get to the rental counter. Prior to pickup, check with your rental provider whether other documentation is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of insurance.

Where can I find a Washington car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Washington outlets will rent to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you'll need to do your homework. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some businesses will have a surcharge for young customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always look through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Washington?
A comprehensive insurance policy is a great choice for your upcoming Washington escape. That's why we recommend adding collision protection while booking your rental car with Expedia. This insures your vehicle against theft, accident damage and vandalism. Some destinations may require a minimum level of liability insurance. This may already be included in your rental cost or your personal auto insurance, so check what you're covered for and whether you need it.
Can I drive in Washington with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in England, then you'll likely need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country in order to rent a car. Also consider that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some added requirements to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be at least 25 in many countries to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it may still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of vehicles you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before driving away. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or go off-roading with a rental vehicle.
