Can I drive in Watsonville with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in Australia, then it's likely you'll need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be able to rent a car. Also consider that if you do need an IDP, it won't be valid on its own. You'll be asked to show your current license your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card used to book the rental matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some additional requirements for international car rentals are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in most places to rent a car. If you're younger than that, 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 cars you can rent.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off the lot. Usually, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or go off-roading with a rental vehicle.
