Higher age limits apply for luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Stratford?

If you've found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25, take note that extra costs may apply. Conduct some research into any extra charges before collecting the vehicle.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Stratford?
We recommend purchasing collision damage protection while reserving your Stratford rental car with Expedia. This protects your vehicle against accident damage, theft and vandalism throughout your vacation. Offering up to $35,000 in primary coverage and 24/7 emergency assistance, you can breathe easy knowing you'll be covered for possible mishaps. It's easy to opt in to this insurance while reserving your rental vehicle.
Can I drive in Stratford with my current driver's license?
If you don't hold a driver's license issued in New Zealand, then it's likely you'll need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be allowed to rent a car. You should also note that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll need to show your current driver's license your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. A few other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older 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: Be sure to read the fine print before getting behind the wheel. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or off road with a rental car.
