How old do you have to be to rent a car in Central America?
Drivers need to be at least 21. But there are a few age-related rules you should keep in mind before you reserve your wheels in Central America. If you're a young driver, most rental outlets will charge an extra fee and limit the kinds of vehicles you're able to rent. The exact surcharge, and which ages it applies to, varies between providers. Take a moment to compare the rules.
What do you need to rent a car in Central America?
Before you can get behind the wheel in Central America, you'll need a driver's license and a credit card.

Where can I find a Central America car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to check the age policy of the Central America rental suppliers you're considering. If you're under 25 years old, be aware that some will charge extra fees. It's ideal to know about this in advance so you can plan your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own terms and conditions for young drivers, so it'd be wise to do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Central America?
For a stress-free adventure, add Expedia's collision damage protection while booking your rental car. This insurance covers your ride against vandalism, accident damage and theft.
