Can I drive in Hillsborough with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in New Zealand, then it's likely you'll need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country in order to rent a car. Also consider 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, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some added requirements to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older 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 the types of vehicles you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive away. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or off road with your rental car.
