For a stress-free getaway, add Expedia's collision protection while reserving your rental car. This insurance covers your ride against accident damage, vandalism and theft.

Question 12

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

Accepted Answer

If you don't possess a driver's license issued in New Zealand, then you'll likely need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be able to rent a car. Please also consider that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll need to show your current license your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. A few other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or over 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: Be sure to read the rules and regulations before getting behind the wheel. You typically can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on off-road areas with a rental car.
