It's possible that this is included in your rental cost or your personal auto insurance, so check what you're covered for and whether you need it.
Can I drive in Waihemo with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in New Zealand, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be allowed to rent a car. You should also note 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, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. A few other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in many countries 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 fine print before you drive off the lot. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or go off-roading with a rental car.
