Can I drive in Kohatu with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in New Zealand, then it's likely you'll need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be allowed to rent a car. Also consider that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll be asked to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental 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 most places 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 driving away. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with your rental car.
