How old do you have to be to rent a car in Southport?
Home vehicle rules in Southport require drivers to be 21 and older. Are you a young driver? A few surcharges and restrictions may apply.

Restrictions generally apply to the classes of cars available to young people as well. Age limits may differ between suppliers, so check before you book.
What do you need to rent a car in Southport?
Most of the time, all you’ll need is a driver’s license and credit card in your name when collecting the keys to your car. Proof of coverage may also be required if you decide to opt out of the company’s insurance policy. These requirements often differ between home outlets, so remember to check in advance.
What side of the road do you drive on in Southport?
In Southport, like the rest of Australia, motorists drive on the left-hand side of the road. Take it slow at first and build confidence driving on the left if you’ve never done it before.

Where can I find a Southport car rental if I am younger than 25?
You’ll need to look up the age policy of the Southport home suppliers you’re considering. If you’re under 25 be aware that some will charge additional fees. It’s handy to know this ahead of time so you can have the funds ready. Each rental car company has its own policies for younger drivers, so do your research.
