Can I drive in Southwest with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in Australia, then it's likely you'll need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country to be allowed to rent a car. You should also be aware that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll be asked to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some other requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over in many countries 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 available to rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before sliding behind the wheel. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental car.
