If you're a young driver, rental providers will likely charge an extra fee and limit the types of cars you're able to rent. The surcharge, and which age range it applies to, differs between outlets. Take the time to compare the rules.

It's good to know this in advance so you can plan your budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own policies for young drivers, so it's smart to do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Awarua?
A thorough insurance policy is a good choice for your Awarua escape. That's why we suggest purchasing collision protection while organizing your car rental with Expedia. This insures your vehicle against theft, accident damage and vandalism. Some destinations may need you to have a minimum level of liability insurance. It's possible that this is included in your rental cost or your personal auto insurance, so check what you're covered for.
Can I drive in Awarua 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 apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be able to rent a car. Also consider that if you do need an IDP, it won't be valid on its own. You'll need to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you 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 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 the types of vehicles you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the rules and regulations before driving away. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or go off-roading with a rental car.
