Can I drive in Raetihi with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in New Zealand, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence in order to rent a car. You should also be aware that if you do need an IDP, it won't be valid on its own. You'll need to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of ID 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 other things to note for international car rentals are:
- Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or over in most places 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 you can rent.
- Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive away. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on off-road areas with a rental car.
