How old do you have to be to rent a car in Newcastle?
You need to be at least 21 to get behind the wheel of a rental vehicle in Newcastle. Bear in mind that young drivers may be restricted to renting from a few car classes, such as economy, compact and medium size. Higher age limits usually apply for specialty and luxury vehicles. Additionally, many companies will charge a young renter fee. Read through the rules carefully before hitting the book button and factor any extra fees into your holiday budget.
What do you need to rent a car in Newcastle?
Generally, all that's required is a current driver's licence and a credit card in the same name when picking up the car.

Where can I find a Newcastle car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies differ between rental suppliers, so be prepared to do a bit of shopping around. Found a Newcastle outlet that does rent to under 25s? Terrific! Just be aware that an extra charge often applies to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The terms and conditions of each rental car you're considering should have all the information you need.
