How old do you have to be to rent a car in Belfast?
Belfast rules state drivers must be at least 21 before they can rent a vehicle. However, young drivers will be subject to an extra charge and some restrictions on choice. Most companies impose a daily young renter fee in addition to the standard car rental rate. This covers the extra risk of accident or damage. While many car classes (like compact and economy) are available to young drivers, restrictions generally apply to specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Belfast?
A valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? Then there's a good chance you'll also need proof of other coverage. Requirements can differ from rental company to rental company, so have a thorough read of your policy.
What side of the road do you drive on in Belfast?
People in Belfast drive on the left-hand side of the road, and the steering wheel and other controls are on the opposite side to U.S. vehicles. Take some time getting to know your new ride before venturing out.

Where can I find a Belfast car rental if I am younger than 25?
The ability to rent a car if you are under 25 years old in Belfast often depends on the rental supplier you choose. Some businesses have a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24 years old, yet others may not have any additional fees for this age range. Ensure you go through the terms and conditions of your prospective rental company to avoid extra costs at the rental desk.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Belfast?
A comprehensive insurance policy is a wise idea for your upcoming Belfast vacation. That's why we recommend adding collision protection while booking your rental car with Expedia. This insures your vehicle against theft, accident damage and vandalism. Some destinations may need you to have a minimum level of liability insurance. It's possible that this is included in your rental price or your personal auto insurance, so check what you're covered for and if you need it.
Can I drive in Belfast with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in New Zealand, then you'll likely need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be able to rent a car. Please also consider that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your driver's license and passport. A few other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in most places to rent a car. If you're younger, it might still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the rules and regulations before you drive off the lot. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on off-road areas with a rental vehicle.
