What insurance should I choose for my car rental in New York?

Can I drive in New York with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in England, then you may need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country in order to rent a car. You should also be aware that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. A few other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or over in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger, it may 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 you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the rules and regulations before sliding behind the wheel. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on off-road areas with your rental car.
