Can I drive in Wellington with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license issued in the United States, then you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car in the U.S. 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 ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to hire the vehicle must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Additional requirements for hire cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states in order to hire a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the company you're hiring from before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel to avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or go off-roading with your car hire. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
