Driver Requirements: USA and International Licence Holders

What Are the Driver Requirements for USA and International Licence Holders?

To subscribe to a Roam vehicle with a USA or international licence, you must be at least 23 years old with a clean driving record. Roam reviews your motor vehicle record (driving record) and credit history as part of approval, no matter where your licence is from. Because Roam can't access foreign licensing or credit systems directly, USA and international holders provide these documents themselves: USA holders provide a DMV driving record and proof of credit history; international holders provide a 3-year driving record and proof of previous insurance coverage, both from the country where their licence was issued.

For step-by-step instructions on what to provide and where to request it, see Getting Your Documentation Ready.

Driver Criteria

• Must be a minimum age of 23
• Must have no major driving violations, suspensions, or infractions within the last 3 years
• Must have no major criminal convictions or moving violations within the last 3 years
• Must have a valid licence

Required Documents for International Drivers

International drivers must provide:

• A 3-year driving record or licence record from the country where the licence was issued
• Proof of previous insurance coverage or experience — Roam requires a minimum of 1 year of experience on an active or previous car insurance policy, with details of claims or proof of no claims

Both documents must be issued from the same country where your driver's licence originates.

Required Documents for USA Licence Holders

USA licence holders must provide:

• A copy of your driving record from the DMV or state (minimum 1 year of driving experience and history required)
• Proof of credit history (current credit or FICO score)
