If you don't have a driver's license issued in Netherlands, then you might need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country in order to rent a car.

Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some added requirements to rent a car internationally are:

Age restrictions: You need to be at least 25 in most places 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 what kinds of cars you can rent.
Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before getting behind the wheel. You typically can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on off-road areas with a rental vehicle.
