How old do you have to be to rent a car in China?

Be sure to enter the correct age of the main driver when booking to learn if any restrictions apply to you.

Where can I find a China car rental if I am younger than 25?
The ability to rent a car if you're under 25 years in China often depends on the rental company you select. Some outlets apply a surcharge for drivers aged between 21 and 24 years, however others may not apply any additional fees for this age range. It'd be wise to understand the terms and conditions of your prospective rental company to escape any surprise charges when picking up your keys.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in China?
Make a safe start to your road trip by purchasing 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 theft, vandalism and collision damage up to $35,000, as well as round-the-clock emergency help. Don't wait until you reach the rental desk to insure your precious wheels. Opt in to collision protection while booking your China ride with Expedia and save time and money.
Can I drive in China with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Japan, then you'll likely need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence in order to rent a car. It's also important to note that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your current license your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some other requirements to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in many countries 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 the types of vehicles available to rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before getting behind the wheel. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or off road with a rental vehicle.
