Car Rental Information for Wellington Downtown Location

  • Driver’s License (DL) Requirement

    To be able to pick the car rentals at the supplier’s downtown counter, the renters will have to produce their full and valid driving licenses. Temporary or pink license holders which have points on their license will not be allowed to rent a car.

  • International Driving Permit

    In case, the renter’s license is not in English, the renter needs to provide their International Driving license. Note that it acts only as a translation of the original license; one can’t qualify to rent a car solely on the basis of IDP.

  • Age Qualification

    A renter needs to be at least 21 years of age to be able to rent a car at Wellington Downtown. Renters falling in 21-25 age-bracket may have to pay a young driver surcharge, which varies from supplier to supplier. Read the rental voucher for more information.

  • Payment Policy

    Since most of our suppliers don’t allow cash and debit cards for payments, make sure that you have a valid credit card if you want to successfully pick your rental car at Wellington Downtown.

  • Multi Island Rentals

    Almost all of our suppliers allow travelers to take their rental cars to South Island on a ferry. Almost all of our one-way rentals that are to be taken on a ferry cover the one-way fee as well as the ferry charges within the deal’s price. However, one needs to confirm this at the rental desk.

  • Cross-Border Travel & Additional Driver

    Taking your rental outside New Zealand is not permitted by our suppliers. Our suppliers allow additional driver add-on provided that driver also meets all the renter requirements. While some suppliers allow the first additional driver add-on free of cost, others charge a fee.
