Question 12

Can I drive near Cardiff (CWL-Cardiff Intl.) with my current driver's license?

If you don't have a driver's license issued in Wales, then you'll likely need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be able to rent a car.

You'll have to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some additional requirements for international car rentals are:

Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or over 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 what kinds of cars you can rent.
Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before getting behind the wheel. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on off-road areas with a rental vehicle.
