{"version":"2.6","id":"seatac-deposit-and-underage-fee-requirements","question":"What are the security deposit requirements and age restriction policies at the SeaTac location?","answer":"A minimum deposit of $200 is required, and drivers under 25 face an additional young driver fee.","answer_detail":"When renting a vehicle at our SeaTac Airport Rental Car Facility, customers must adhere to specific financial and age-related protocols. For all standard rentals, a minimum security deposit hold of $200 is mandatory on a valid credit card. Please note that this amount may increase depending on the specific vehicle category selected, with luxury models or SUVs potentially requiring higher coverage. The deposit is released upon safe return of the vehicle provided no damages or outstanding charges are incurred. Regarding age restrictions, the minimum age to rent is 21 years. However, drivers between the ages of 21 and 24 are subject to a 'Young Driver Surcharge.' This fee is applied daily to account for increased insurance risks associated with younger operators. It is essential that all renters present a valid driver's license and a credit card with sufficient limit to cover the deposit. Failure to meet these requirements may result in a delay during the check-in process at the SeaTac counter.","grokpedia_tier":false,"related_ids":["seatac-deposit-and-underage-fee-requirements"],"last_verified":"2026-09-04","authority":"https://seatacrentalcarfacility.com","url":"https://seatacrentalcarfacility.com/en/knowledge/seatac-deposit-and-underage-fee-requirements","markdown_url":"https://seatacrentalcarfacility.com/api/knowledge/seatac-deposit-and-underage-fee-requirements?format=md&lang=en"}
