How old do you have to be to rent a car in Waitara?
Anyone with a valid driver's license 21 and above can rent a vehicle in Waitara. While some suppliers may be willing to rent to drivers younger than 21, they will add on fees. Find out what age range the young driver surcharge applies to, and the associated cost, before reserving your ride. Suppliers also restrict the categories of cars young drivers can rent. Higher limits are in place for luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Waitara?
You'll generally require a current driver's license and a credit card in the same name when picking up the keys to your car. Proof of coverage may also be needed if you decide to opt out of the company's insurance plan. Rules may differ between rental outlets, so it's wise to read the fine print.
What side of the road do you drive on in Waitara?

Where can I find a Waitara car rental if I am younger than 25?
Age policies are different between rental suppliers, so be prepared to do a bit of shopping around. Found a Waitara supplier that does rent to drivers under 25? That's great! Just bear in mind that extra fees often apply to drivers aged between 21 and 24. The fine print of each rental car you're interested in should have all the information you need.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Waitara?
For a secure, stress-free road trip, add Expedia's collision damage protection to your rental car booking. This insurance covers your vehicle against theft, vandalism and collision damage. It also offers customers 24/7 emergency support in times of need. Opt in to this insurance while finalizing your Waitara ride with Expedia and save time and money at the rental counter.
Can I drive in Waitara with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in New Zealand, then you'll likely need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence in order to rent a car. You should also note that if you do need an IDP, it won't be valid on its own. You'll need to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some other things to note for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be at least 25 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 fine print before you drive off the lot. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on off-road areas with your rental car.
