What do you need to rent a car in Santa Clara?
Most rental companies will require two things — a valid driver's license and a credit card in your name. If you'd like to opt out of the provider's insurance plan, proof of other coverage will also likely be needed. Read your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.

Based on prices found over the past seven days, you could've jumped into the driver's seat of your own rental car for just $3 a day. The second lowest daily price on offer in Santa Clara was $7. These rates were available on Expedia, with a rental starting date within the next year. Prices and availability are subject to change and additional terms apply.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Santa Clara?
Whether you plan to hang around Santa Clara or discover what's beyond, it's easy to book a long-term rental with Expedia. Enter your trip dates and pick-up/drop-off locations and we'll help you find the best long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Santa Clara car rental if I am younger than 25?
Whether you can rent a vehicle if you are under 25 years old in Santa Clara often depends on the rental company you select. Some businesses apply a surcharge for young drivers between 21 and 24 years old, but other companies may not have any extra costs for this age range. It'd be good to go through the terms and conditions of your preferred car company to escape extra charges at the rental desk.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Santa Clara?
Start your road trip on the right foot by choosing Expedia's collision damage protection. While there are many types of car rental insurance, this is one you'll need to have. It provides primary coverage for accident damage, theft and vandalism up to $35,000, as well as 24-hour emergency help. Don't wait until you get to the rental desk to insure your wheels. Opt in to collision protection while reserving your Santa Clara ride with Expedia and save money and time.
Can I drive in Santa Clara with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Panama, then it's likely you'll need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence in order to rent a car. You should also note that if you do need an IDP, it won't be valid on its own. You'll be asked to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some additional requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in many 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: Be sure to read the fine print before driving away. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or off road with a rental vehicle.
