If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Australia, then you'll likely need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be allowed to rent a car.

You'll be asked to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some added requirements to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it may still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to what kinds of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the rules and regulations before getting behind the wheel. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental vehicle.
