What is the drink driving limit in New Zealand?
The BAC limit is 0.05% in New Zealand - this applies to both visitors and residents. Your BAC level is a measurement of the percentage of alcohol in your bloodstream. This information is used to determine how inebriated an individual is. Driving a vehicle with a BAC higher than 0.05% is against the law in New Zealand and you will be deemed as ‘driving under the influence’. If you are younger than 18, which is the legal drinking age in New Zealand, then you may face strict penalties if you are caught drink-driving. Keep in mind that it is never a good idea to drink-drive no matter how old you are.

The minimum age for drivers varies by country, including New Zealand. In numerous EU countries, drivers must be 18 years old. To hire a car overseas, you'll generally need to be at least 21, and if you're under 25, a young driver surcharge may be applied. We advise that you read the policy of your chosen hire company before making a reservation.
What documentation or ID do you need to hire a car in New Zealand?
To hire a car in New Zealand, all drivers must present a valid full driving license. If the license is written in a language other than the language of the country of hire, an International Driving Permit may be required to avoid the risk of potential fines.

We always recommend that you verify with the specific hire company you're booking with.
