What do you need to rent a car in San Francisco?
Before you can take the wheel in San Francisco, you’ll need a driver’s license and a credit card in the same name. If you decline to take out the rental company’s insurance policy, you may also have to provide proof of other coverage. Requirements can vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you select a rental provider.
Can I drive in San Francisco with my U.S. Driver's license?
You can, but if you really want to play it safe, organize an International Driving Permit to go with your U.S. License. The permit contains your name, photo and driver’s details and is an useful additional proof of identity.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in San Francisco?
Yes. We partner with quality suppliers that offer weekly and monthly rentals for many categories of cars. Pick up one of our long-term car rental deals and discover every inch of San Francisco — or far beyond!
Where can I find a San Francisco car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to look up the age policy of the San Francisco rental suppliers you’re considering. If you’re under 25 years old, some will charge extra costs. It’s useful to know about this before arriving at the desk so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own rules for young drivers, so do your research.
