Question 12

Can I drive in Old Town Edinburgh with my current driver's license?

Accepted Answer

If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Scotland, then you may need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be able to rent a car. Also consider that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll need to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some additional requirements to rent a car internationally 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 cars you can rent.
Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before getting behind the wheel. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental vehicle.
