Be aware that home companies will charge young drivers an extra fee, which is meant to cover the higher accident or damage risk involved. Also, young motorists often aren’t permitted to rent luxury cars or larger vehicles. Check the terms and conditions before booking so there are no hassles when it’s time to collect the keys.
What do you need to rent a car in Canterbury?
Before you can hit the road in Canterbury, you’ll need a valid driver’s license and a credit card that matches the name on your license. If you decline to take out the company’s insurance plan, you may also have to show proof of other coverage.

Where can I find a Canterbury car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the holiday home companies operating in Canterbury. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you’ve found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25 take note that extra costs may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before booking your holiday home car.
Can I drive in Canterbury with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the United States, you may be required to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car. If you find that an IDP is required, note that you’ll also need to show your current valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to confirm your home. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many states to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, and with the car rental company before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you usually can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse rough terrain with a rental car. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
