How old do you have to be to rent a car in Hastings?

The amount of the surcharge, and which ages it applies to, differs between outlets. Take a moment to compare the rules.
What do you need to rent a car in Hastings?
Your driver's license and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? If that's the case, you may need proof of other coverage. The requirements may differ between rental suppliers, so read your policy thoroughly.
What side of the road do you drive on in Hastings?
If you're renting a vehicle in Hastings, you'll have to stick to the left. Take note that the driver's seat will also be on the opposite side to what you're familiar with. Consider booking a car with automatic transmission to make things a little easier.

Where can I find a Hastings car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Hastings providers will rent to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you should do your homework. Also, find out if there are additional costs. Some places will have a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Hastings?
Get your road trip off to a safe start by purchasing Expedia's collision damage protection. While there are all kinds of rental car insurance, this is one you'll need to have. It provides primary coverage for vandalism, accident damage and theft up to $35,000, as well as 24-hour emergency help. Don't wait until you reach the rental desk to insure your wheels. Opt in to collision protection while reserving your Hastings ride with Expedia and save time and money.
Can I drive in Hastings with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in New Zealand, then you may 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 you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll be asked to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of documentation 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 must be at least 25 in many countries to rent a car. If you're younger, 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. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental vehicle.
