If you cancel your insurance before your scheduled collection time, you'll receive a full refund.
Can I drive in Swansea with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in Wales, then you might need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be allowed to rent a car. It's also important to note that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll be asked to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your license and passport. Some other requirements to rent a car internationally are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or over 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 what kinds of cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off the lot. You typically can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on off-road areas with a rental vehicle.
