To rent a car, you will need a valid driver's license (international if your national license is not accepted in Guam), a passport, and a credit card in the driver's name. The minimum age for rental is usually 21 or 25, but may vary depending on the company. Be prepared for a deposit to be blocked on your credit card, which will be returned after returning the car undamaged. Most major credit cards are accepted, but check the specific company's terms.
When renting a car, you will be offered various types of insurance. CDW (Collision Damage Waiver) covers damage to the car in the event of an accident.

Check if your credit card covers rental car insurance to avoid double insurance.
