Whatever suits your style! Go for an intermediate or full-size if you’re travelling with the family, or scale up to a premium if you’re chasing sophistication.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Wellington?
The youngest age you can rent a car in Wellington is 21. An extra fee for young drivers typically applies, so check before booking and factor in any additional costs. There may also be restrictions on the types of cars that can be rented by young drivers. For instance, some providers will only rent out economy to medium-sized cars to young motorists. Requirements may vary between suppliers, so be sure to read the fine print.
What do you need to rent a car in Wellington?
You’ll need to present a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name at the home counter. Prior to pickup, check with your selected company whether anything else is needed. For example, you may also need to provide proof of insurance.

Where can I find a Wellington car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a young driver looking for a holiday home in Wellington, we recommend checking the terms and conditions of the various car rental companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under 25 some may not. There may be extra fees if you’re aged between 21 and 24. To escape any surprise fees and charges on pickup, make sure you know if any extra charges apply to you.
Can I drive in Wellington with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license from the U.S, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required, be aware that you’ll also have to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 or older in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the company you’re renting from before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your rental car. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
