How old do you have to be to rent a car in Launceston?

While many car categories (like mid-size and compact) are available to young drivers, restrictions generally apply to premium and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Launceston?
You’ll need to present a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name when you get to the home counter. Prior to pickup, check with your selected home company whether other documentation is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of insurance.
What side of the road do you drive on in Launceston?

Where can I find a Launceston car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to investigate the age policy of the Launceston home providers you’re interested in. If you’re under 25 years of age, some companies will charge additional costs. It’s better to know this in advance so you can have the funds ready. Each rental car company has its own rules for younger drivers, so it’d be wise to do your research.
