If you don't have a driver's license issued in India, then you may need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed to rent a car.

Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in most places to rent a car. If you're younger than that, 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 fine print before you drive off the lot. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or go off-roading with a rental car.
