Requirements for Car Rental
To rent a vehicle in Ontario, drivers must present and comply with the following standards:
- Driver's license: A valid physical driving license. If printed in a language other than English or French, an International Driving Permit is highly advisable.
- Minimum age: Typically 21 years old. Drivers aged under 25 are subject to a young driver surcharge and certain vehicle categories may be restricted.
- Credit card: A major credit card in the primary renter's name is required for the security deposit hold. Debit cards and cash deposits are not accepted for pre-authorization.
- Identification: International travelers must present a valid passport and return travel documentation.
Tip: Because available fleet capacity on the waterfront is limited, booking well in advance online is strongly recommended.
