Can I drive in East Melbourne with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Australia, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be able to rent a car. It's also important to note that if you do need an IDP, 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, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many 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 the types of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before you drive off the lot. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or off road with a rental car.
