In addition to accepting a foreign driver’s license, we also accept ITIN numbers. ITIN stands for Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, and is assigned to residents of the US with foreign status. A social security number, on the other hand, is for U.S. citizens and authorized non-citizen residents.
Here at Continental Mitsubishi, if you don’t have an SSN, it’s no problem. An ITIN will do just fine.
