Where can I find a Wellington hire car if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the rental car companies that are found in Wellington. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages. If you've found an outlet that does cater to drivers under 25, be aware that extra fees may apply. Conduct some research into what those charges could be before booking your hire car.
Can I drive in Wellington with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the United States, you may be required to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S, note that you'll also need to show your current driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to hire the car must also match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Additional requirements for car hire in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in many states in order to hire a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, and with the hire car company before you book to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you leave the lot to avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with a hire car. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
