Frequently asked questions

What happens if I need to cancel my New Zealand car reservation?
Good news! You should be eligible for a full refund if you cancel at least six hours prior to picking up the car. Your itinerary contains information about this, as does our Customer Service Portal. Not all bookings result in a refund though, so it's a good idea to read through the policy.
What types of cars can I rent in New Zealand?
Keep costs low with an economy, splash out on a premium ride or go for something in the middle, like a mid-size. But it's hard to beat a compact car — the number one choice in New Zealand. They're a joy to handle and park, fuel-efficient and a smart idea if you're cruising around cities. An upgrade from economy, you can expect a bit more room and comfort at a price that's still affordable.

Browse our huge range of rental cars, check out customer reviews and compare prices from popular suppliers. In just a few clicks, Expedia will help you nab the best deal on your ride. Got a hotel or flight booking? Add on your New Zealand car rental and save even more.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in New Zealand?
Drivers aged 21 and over can road trip around New Zealand in a rental vehicle. If you're a young driver, a daily surcharge will apply. You'll usually be limited to a few car categories, such as economy and mid-size, and may also be required to take out an all-inclusive insurance rate. Always enter the correct age of the primary driver when booking to learn if any surcharges or restrictions apply.
What do you need to rent a car in New Zealand?
Your driver's license and a credit card in the same name are two essentials. Don't want to take out the company's insurance plan? Then you may also need proof of your own coverage. Rules can differ between suppliers, so read through your policy.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in New Zealand?
Yes, and you're sure to find your ideal set of wheels on our long-term car rental deals page. Just enter your trip information and we'll show you fantastic offers from numerous leading providers.
Where can I find a New Zealand car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some New Zealand providers will rent to drivers under 25 years old, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you'll have to do some research. Also, find out if there are any additional costs. Some businesses will have a surcharge for customers between 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in New Zealand?
You should have collision damage protection to cover your New Zealand rental car against theft, vandalism and accident damage. And with Expedia, you can easily add this insurance to your vehicle at the time of booking. Covering primary physical damage of up to $35,000, it also offers 24-hour emergency help and no deductible should you need to make a claim. Plans changed? If you cancel your insurance before your scheduled collection time, you'll receive a complete refund.
