Lastly, it's important that 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:

  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before you drive off the lot. You typically can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on off-road areas with a rental vehicle.
