Where can I find a Christchurch car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you're a younger driver hoping to rent a vehicle in Christchurch, we recommend reading the policies of the rental companies you're interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25, some may not. Surcharges may apply if you're between 21 and 24 years of age. To avoid any unpleasant surprises at the rental counter, make sure you know if any extra charges apply to you.
Can I drive in Christchurch with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license issued in the United States, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required, 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 that was used to rent the car must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to confirm your home. Additional requirements for car rentals 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 regulations, as well as with the company you're renting from before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you usually can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse off-road areas with your rental car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
