Restrictions usually apply to the types of cars available to young people as well. Age limits may vary between providers, so check before you book.
What do you need to rent a car in Richmond?
Before you can hit the road in Richmond, you'll need a driver's license and a credit card that matches the name on your license.

Requirements may vary, so understand the policy terms and conditions before you select a rental company.

Some places apply a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24 years old, however other companies may not apply any additional costs for this age bracket. Ensure you go through the terms and conditions of your selected car company to avoid any nasty surprises when picking up your keys.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Richmond?
A thorough insurance plan is a good choice for your upcoming Richmond trip. That's why we recommend choosing collision protection while organizing your car rental with Expedia. This covers your vehicle from theft, vandalism and collision damage. Some destinations may require you to have a minimum level of liability insurance. This might be included in your rental price or your own auto insurance, so check what you're covered for and if you need it.
Can I drive in Richmond with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in New Zealand, then you'll likely need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence in order 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 have to show your current license your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some other requirements to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be at least 25 in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger, 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 what kinds of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before you drive off the lot. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with your rental car.
