How old do you have to be to rent a car in South Tampa?
The minimum age is 21. But there are some age-related restrictions to keep in mind before you lock in your South Tampa wheels. If you're a younger driver, most rental suppliers will charge an additional daily fee and limit the sorts of cars you're able to rent. The amount of the surcharge, and which ages it applies to, varies between companies. Take a few moments to compare the requirements.
What do you need to rent a car in South Tampa?
Any rental company you choose will ask for these two things — a valid driver's licence and a credit card in your name.

Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25, some may not. There may be additional costs if you're aged between 21 and 24. To escape any surprise fees and charges at the rental counter, make sure you know what those charges are if they apply to you.
