How old do you have to be to rent a car in Chinatown?
Chinatown requires drivers to be 18 and above before they can rent a car. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra charge and some choice restrictions. Many companies impose a daily young renter fee in addition to the standard car rental rate. This helps cover the extra risk of accident or damage. While many car categories (like mid-size and compact) are available to young renters, restrictions usually apply to luxury cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Chinatown?
Generally, all that's required is a current driver's licence and credit card in your name when collecting the vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be needed if you decide to opt out of the company's insurance plan. These requirements may differ between rental companies, so remember to check while booking.
What side of the road do you drive on in Chinatown?
People in Chinatown drive on the left-hand side, and the driver's seat and some controls are on the opposite side to cars in the U.S. Take some extra time getting acquainted with your new car before venturing out.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in Chinatown?
Whether you plan to stick around Chinatown or discover what's beyond, it's easy to reserve a long-term rental with Expedia. Enter your trip information and pick-up/drop-off locations and we'll help you find affordable long-term car rental deals.
Where can I find a Chinatown car rental if I am younger than 25?
Whether or not you can rent a car if you are under 25 years old in Chinatown often depends on the rental provider you choose. Some outlets apply a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24 years of age, yet other companies may not have any extra fees for this age bracket. It'd be smart to go through the terms and conditions of your selected rental company to avoid extra costs when collecting your car.
