Can I drive in Birkenhead with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in New Zealand, then you'll likely need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be allowed to rent a car. Please also consider that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll need to show your current license your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. A few other things to note for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 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: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before you drive off the lot. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or off road with a rental vehicle.
