Where can I find a Wellington car rental if I am younger than 25?
The ability to rent a vehicle if you are under 25 in Wellington often depends on the holiday home company you choose. Some outlets have a surcharge for young drivers between 21 and 24 years old, however others may not apply any extra fees for this age range. Be sure to go through the terms and conditions of your chosen car company to avoid any surprise charges on pickup.
Can I drive in Wellington with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license from the United States, you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, know that you'll also have to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, your credit card used to rent the car must also match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about rental cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many states in order to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the company you're renting from before you book to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your home. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
