Question 1

Can international visitors rent a car at Riccarton

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can rent a car as a foreigner at Riccarton. However, you will need a valid international driving permit (IDP) along with your home country driver’s license. Additionally, be prepared to provide a credit card for the deposit and reservation. Rental requirements may vary by company, so it's a good idea to check with the rental provider or use our website, VoyageCopilot.com, to find rental options and requirements for international drivers.

Question 2

Do I need to return the car with a full tank of gas?

Accepted Answer

Whether you need to return the car with a full tank of gas depends on the fuel policy you select. With a full-to-full or same-to-same policy, you must return the vehicle with the same level of fuel it had when you picked it up. If you don’t, you’ll incur a charge for the missing fuel, usually at a rate higher than local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank, which means you won't need to refuel the car before returning it. However, this option typically results in a higher overall cost, as you’ll be charged the local gas price minus a discount per gallon.
