If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Australia, then you'll likely need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed to rent a car. You should also be aware that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll have to show your current license 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 need to be 25 or older in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger than that, 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 vehicles you can rent.
• Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before getting behind the wheel. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental car.
