Q
Driving license requirements ( New Zealand - Transport)
Mary - 10th Feb, 2018
We live in California, US, and we both have a valid CA driver's license. Is such a license valid to rent a car in NZ, or do we need some sort of international license? If so, what's the process for obtaining one? Also, is there a maximum age to rent/drive a car in NZ?
