While many car classes (like mid-size and compact) are available to young drivers, restrictions generally apply to premium and specialty vehicles.

Question 7

While booking conditions may differ between outlets, the two key things you'll need are a valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name. You don't need to take out the company's insurance plan. However, proof of your own coverage may be required.

Question 8

What side of the road do you drive on in Kommetjie?

Accepted Answer

In Kommetjie and across South Africa, you'll need to drive on the left side of the road.

Question 11

Where can I find a Kommetjie car rental if I am younger than 25?

Question 13

Can I drive in Kommetjie with my current driver's license?

Accepted Answer

If you don't hold a driver's license issued in South Africa, then it's likely you'll need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed 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 be asked to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card 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 older in most 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 cars you can rent.
