How old do you have to be to rent a car in Bay of Plenty?
You need to be 21 and over to get behind the wheel of a rental vehicle in Bay of Plenty.

What do you need to rent a car in Bay of Plenty?
Any rental company you choose will need these two things — a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name. If you’d prefer to opt out of the provider’s insurance plan, proof of your own coverage may also be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring when it’s time to pick up your ride.

Yes. But also consider organizing an International Driving Permit. With one of those and your U.S. License, you’re sure to have all your bases covered for road-tripping around Bay of Plenty.

Where can I find a Bay of Plenty car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the car rental companies located in Bay of Plenty. They often have different age policies. If you’ve found a supplier that does cater to drivers under 25, take note that additional fees may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before picking up your vehicle.
