Question 1

Should I purchase extra insurance when renting a car at Timaru Airport, TIU?

Accepted Answer

All rental companies require valid insurance for financial protection; without it, your rental request may be denied. You might not need additional insurance if you already have coverage that applies to international rentals for your chosen car type or class, or if your credit card provides insurance for rentals abroad. If these conditions do not apply, purchasing extra protection is essential. You can secure your deposit by buying Excess Fee Insurance during booking on our website or opting for Full Coverage Insurance or Excess Reduction at the rental counter.

Question 2

Do I need a valid passport to rent a car at Timaru Airport?

Accepted Answer

A valid passport is typically required for international customers renting a vehicle. For domestic renters, a valid driver’s license is usually sufficient. In the United States and Canada, U.S. and Canadian residents generally only need a valid driver’s license. In Europe, residents of EU countries can often rent with just a driver’s license from their home country. Always verify the specific identification requirements with the rental company, as they can vary based on the country and region.

Question 4

Is it cheaper to hire a car for a week at Timaru Airport, TIU

Accepted Answer

Sometimes it can be cheaper to rent a car for a week rather than for a shorter period, but it's better to double-check while booking.

Question 5

What information is included in the car rental contract?

Accepted Answer

The rental contract normally includes comprehensive details such as the terms and conditions of the rental, insurance coverage options, rental duration, and payment details. It also outlines any additional services requested, such as GPS or child seats, and specifies policies on fuel, mileage limits, and fees for additional drivers. Additionally, the contract normally includes information about responsibilities for property damage, procedures for returning the vehicle, age requirements, and accepted forms of identification, like a valid driver's license and credit card.

Question 6

Can someone else drive my rental car?
