Question 13

Can I drive in Karawanella with my current driver's license?

Accepted Answer

If you don't have a driver's license issued in Sri Lanka, then you'll likely need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed to rent a car. Please 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, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. A few other things to note for international car rentals are:

Age restrictions: You need to be at least 25 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 vehicles you can rent.
Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive away. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental car.
