If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Australia, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country in order to rent a car. Also consider that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll be asked to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. A few other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

• Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older 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 the types of vehicles available to rent.
• Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before sliding behind the wheel. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental vehicle.
