Requirements to Rent a Car
To pick up a rental car at Denver International Airport, travelers must meet the following standard criteria:
- Driver's License: A valid physical driver's license from your home country. If the license is not in the Roman alphabet or English, an International Driving Permit (IDP) is strongly recommended or required alongside the national license.
- Minimum Age: The standard minimum rental age is 21 years old. Drivers between 21 and 24 years of age are typically charged a daily young driver surcharge and may be excluded from renting specialty or luxury classes.
- Credit Card: A major international credit card in the primary driver's name with sufficient available credit for the security deposit hold. Debit card policies are restrictive and often require proof of return flight itinerary.
- Passport and Proof of Travel: International visitors must present a valid passport and, in many cases, a confirmed return flight ticket.
- Insurance: Third-party liability and collision damage waiver (CDW/LDW), provided via personal auto insurance, credit card benefits, or purchased at the counter.
